In 1993 she was introduced to electronic music by old good friend Till von Sein and short after she opened her own record store, Startbeat, in hometown Kiel. Parallel to that she started djing and organizing events on a regular basis: „Groove Complex“, the first one, gave her the chance to train her dj skills, playing along with international DJs in front of big crowds. The experience was important to get her name to a national circuit.
In 2001 she moved to Paris and started to work as promoter for a bar in the heart of Paris, „Lizard Lounge“. There she met Reynold, who was already promoting French electronic music artists through his record label Trenton.
In 2005 she moved to Berlin and her work with Trenton started to grow increasingly with a repertoire of international artists from Germany, France, Japan, Canada, Poland, Russia and the USA.
After Paris, her heart was led to a more surprising destination, the troubled Lebanon, and more precisely Beirut. There she was regularly djing and together with local dj Jade, former owner of the „the Basement“ club, created a series of Red Cross Charity-Events called „To Beirut“.
Some of the clubs hosting this special event had been Berlin’s Watergate, Paris’ Rex Club and London’s the Key, among others. This project has been supported by artists like Craig Richards, Tiefschwarz, DJ Hell, Mr. C, M.A.N.D.Y., Oliver Koletzki, Ewan Pearson, Tobi Neumann and other international DJs.
Through the years her sound developed from French house to minimal techno, while funk and soul of the seventies, her main music roots, can be still heard in her dj sets.
P.Toile’s releases on Trenton, Drehstrom, Gold und Liebe, Channel Records and Gasoline Rec. particularly speak to a more mature and music conscious audience, with her productions ranging from down-tempo, to up-lifting minimal techno, via airy emotional house, always spiced up with funk.
INCOGNITO Global presents HOMEGROWN:UNFILTERED (Special Event)
This is starting at 10pm til early morning every 2nd & 4th Fridays of the month and whose objective is to showcase the amazing talents of DJs that are being overlooked by other events just because one doesn't live in Berlin, UK, Amsterdam or what have you. In essence, we believe good music is good music, regardless of where you come from.
*For this night though, we have to suspend that rule as we had to grab the oportunity of having a DJ who was on tour and whose passion & music we totally believe in.*
At the end of the day, this is an event for the scene, by the scene. The best part of it is, HOMEGROWN DJs know already what you like, and how you like it.
