Biografie
GIZELLE REBEL YELLE ... has been spinning all things Acid, House & Techno since the acid house explosion hit London in the last 80's. She began her DJ journey playing funk & soul music, but when she first experienced the sound and energy of acid house music in 1988 her musical direction changed overnight. Her first major gig was playing acid house & balearic beats as resident DJ for the 'Asylum' parties in south east London and for the 'Cooz' parties in north London, warming up for Mr C, Evil Eddie Richards and Shock Sound System.
But it was in the mid-90's when the special connections and Techno kicked in. In 1994 she met Sexy Rubber Sole at Brazen Radio, an all female radio project, and was invited to play for a Zero Gravity second birthday party event in Hackney. This was a major turning point where people were actively coming together, connecting and taking right action through music and creativity. She got involved with the Zero Gravity parties and soon linked up with the Liberator DJ's and Lawrie Immersion. Lawrie heard her play and invited her to DJ on the Immersion Sound System at Cool Tan in Brixton. After this first event, she joined the Immersion forces and started playing every weekend on the London underground free party scene and soon became a strong female force and component behind the decks amongst the scene, working together with comrades Chris Liberator, Aaron, Liberator, Julian Liberator, DDR, Guy 'Geezer' McAffer, Dave The Drummer, Ant, Zebedee and many more, delivering the new London acid techno sound coming out of the underground party scene. Great times!
In the late 90's, she joined the 'Stay Up Forever' collective, producing acid techno under the guise of 'Rebel Yelle', DJ'ing all over the UK & worldwide, and running the 'Antidote' record label whilst working in music distribution exporting SUF Acid & Techno labels and then as production Manager for a collective vinyl pressing plant, formed by members of the scene.
Over the years she has constantly explored music and experimented with different styles of Acid and Techno music. She is still passionate about the underground dance music scene, its active creative community and the diverse people it brings together. Over the years, she has developed her sound encompassing new styles of Acid House and Techno, alongside more experimental and wonky electronic sounds, together with Breakbeat and the classic Acid House and Old Skool music from the roots of rave culture.
Gizelle Rebel Yelle has played worldwide in places such as Russia, Japan, Venezuela, Brazil, Australia, USA, Holland, Spain, Poland, Belgium, Bulgaria and all over the UK. Over the last few years, she has enjoyed the booming UK festival circuit and has played at Boomtown, Glastonbury, No Mans Land, Surplus Fest and Illusive festivals.
2013-2017 Gizelle broadcast the successful monthly REBEL YELLE SHOW on Optical Radio until the radio station closed down. Each month she invited fellow established DJ's and Producers to guest on the show, exploring the sound of the underground and different styles including Acid House, Acid Techno, Techno, Old Skool Acid House & Rave and Breakbeat. Gizelle Rebel Yelle has also played as a guest DJ on various independent radio stations such as Pure Radio (Holland), Report To The Dancefloor (Greece), Fnoob 🇬🇧 and Reels Rebel Radio 🇬🇧. Possible plans for a new radio show later in the year, so watch this space!
Nowadays, Gizelle Rebel Yelle is back working on music productions and exploring new sounds for the dance floor and playing gigs. So watch out for new mixes, productions and gigs along the way! ... Thank you for listening to my mixes and visiting my page. Enjoy the music!!! One love xxx
