We’re super excited to welcome DJ powerhouses Saucy Lady & Optimus Funk to Juju’s! With a love for everything funky, expect house and disco grooves all night. Come down (with ya dancing shoes on), grab a drink and party with the Juju’s fam!!
Saucy Lady began her DJ residencies in the Boston (US) area in 2009, and continuously shares her love for disco, funk, boogie, and house music as a DJ/singer/producer globally.
Her original music has been remixed by highly respected DJs in the field including DJ Spinna, Dr. Packer, Rahaan, Lenny Fontana, Yam Who, Stimulator Jones, and others. This past year she released her disco-infused dance tracks “Reunite Under Starlight” on Defected’s Big Love Records and “Passport to My Love” on a compilation alongside Dimitri from Paris, with the Brooklyn powerhouse label, Razor-n-Tape ranked #1 on Juno Records for sales. Meanwhile she’s been busy in the DJ circuit most recently DJing alongside Tony Humphries at Smartbar in Chicago, and DJing under the lineup of Diplo and Armin Van Buuren at Chicago’s North Coast Music Festival.
Optimus Funk aka Adrian Burton is a London-based DJ, digger and former street dancer who breathes funk, disco, and jazz. His background in street dance is evident in the way he moves between styles and eras. From Disco and Breaks, to Boogie and Modern Funk and even the odd retro video game music reference, he glides effortlessly between genre staples and hidden gems alike.
Having been known as one of the movers and shakers in London’s thriving dance scene over the years, it should be a divine transition for the man himself to bring the boogie from the floor and into the booth as one of the capital’s finest selectors and collectors of feel-good funk related rhythms. Often with a crew of dancer mates in tow, you’ll never find the dance floor with their backs up against the wall.
