About Artist Development & Mentorship
My Journey & What I Bring
I’ve been part of the music world for more than ten years, never just a spectator. It’s not all fun and games, and yeah, sometimes the grind gets real. From dropping my first single to playing at Boiler Room and some wild festivals, I’ve picked up a lot. I want to pass that on, so you don’t have to figure it all out the hard way.
Why My Mentorship Hits Different
I look at the whole picture - not just music, not just branding, not just hustling for gigs. Here’s what I actually help with:
- Track feedback for DJs and producers, covering everything from arrangement to whether it’ll actually get bodies moving
- Creative direction for electronic musicians, especially if you’re trying to find your own sound (Breaks, House, Techno, whatever)
- Career strategy for emerging artists and anyone stuck in the “what next?” phase
- Building a visual artist brand, where my past as a fashion photographer comes in handy
How We Work Together
If you just need someone to tell you what’s working in your track, I’ll listen and give it to you straight. If you’re up for the full mentorship, I’ll guide you through the whole process - sound, strategy, visuals, and how to move your career forward. All online, so it doesn’t matter where you are.
My Approach
It’s all about alignment (yaar, jab sab sahi lagta hai, sab sahi ho jaata hai - when it all feels right, things fall into place). I want you to actually connect - with your sound and your audience. That energy is what makes the difference. Yalla yalla, let’s do this.

My Story
So, I’m Anushka Menon. Most folks know me from the DJ booth, but I spent ages shooting fashion and beauty behind the camera. Music scenes, gigs, organizing, curating – always been my jam, so DJing just happened. Middle Eastern roots, hip hop love, now I’m deep in bass-heavy DJ sets and making my own tracks like ‘Falling’ and ‘Karma’. Manchester, Boiler Room, dreams manifesting – sometimes it feels unreal. Still writing, still waiting for the right moment. Grateful, always.
My Work
What I Play - I DJ, produce, and write songs. My sets blend house, breaks, bass, electro, leftfield house, and dark moody techno.
Vibe & Flow - Crowd first – I layer hypnotic rave nostalgia, edgy breaks, and keep things fluid. It’s all about good energy.
Where You’ll Find Me - Always touring – India, UK, Vietnam, Indonesia. Clubs, festivals, private gigs. Kolkataaa, kemon acho? (How are you?)
Extras - I offer music feedback for artists, and honestly, expect some time pass and fun on the dance floor.
