As an international force for bass music, DJ Lady Waks, global superstar, commands crowds wherever she goes. Alexandra Seregina, otherwise known as Lady Waks, is a multi-award-winning creative powerhouse.
Hailing from St. Petersburg, Russia, Lady Waks began her rise at the age of 17 as a host on her home country’s largest dance radio station, which today reaches millions of people in more than 50 countries. Over two decades she has built a reputation as Russia's most internationally influential and recognized DJ and producer, amassing a large and loyal fanbase with regular tours across Europe, the US, Asia, Australia and New Zealand.
Lady Waks has won many of the industry’s biggest global awards, beating out the likes of Skrillex, Stanton Warriors, Prodigy, Noisia, Krafty Kuts and A-Skillz to win the prestigious title of Best DJ at Breakspoll three times (twice in a row), and is also a three-time winner of the International Breaks Awards’ Best DJ honor. She is the only woman ever to win Breakspoll and IBA awards over consecutive years.
As a creator of original music and a tastemaker who uncovers and avidly promotes new talent, Lady Waks knows what audiences crave and how to deliver it. She is continuously influencing the bass scene, and thrives when collaborating with other artists, having worked alongside the Prodigy, Busta Rhymes, and The Freestylers to name a few – the latter noting Lady Waks inspired their latest big album ‘Other Worlds’.
Earlier in her career, Lady Waks gained world fame with her 2007 track “Minimal,” with vocals by Afrika Islam, which was released through the London-based label Menu Music and nominated for Best Single at Breakspoll in 2007, and continued to receive
nominations in following years including runner-up for Best Track at Breakspoll 2013 with “Shock Out” (Lady Waks, Marten Horger & Nu Jam). In 2017, Lady Waks reinvigorated her own creative output, focusing on the kick-ass and connective energy that drum and bass generates between herself and her audiences. 2019 saw Lady Waks create the music, video, and launch of “Jungliest Track” (Lady Waks, Deekline, Freestylers, ft. Steppa Style & Tenor Youthman). Her music has received millions of listens and views across SoundCloud and Youtube.
Lady Waks is also a pioneer in the bass party scene. In 2000 she made waves in Russia by creating In Beat We Trust (IBWT), an events company that both showcased her own fierce talent and welcomed international artists to perform alongside her. Lady Waks has led IBWT through 20 successful years of innovative and high-powered events, hosting artists such as The Crystal Method, Stanton Warriors, Krafty Kuts, Leeroy Thornhill, and Westbam.
