Cassy has built a reputation as a talented house and minimal DJ. Among other accomplishments, she secured a residency at Panoramabar and had the honor of mixing the first Panoramabar compilation. She has collaborated with artists like Steve Bug, Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano, DJ Elin (aka Autorepeat), Dave the Hustler, Mathew Jonson, and Swayzak. Her tracks and remixes have been released on labels like M_nus, Playhouse, Perlon, Dessous, and Mental Groove. She has also started the label "Cassy", where she has currently released two records, to serve as a vehicle for releasing her own music. While Cassy has achieved much as an electronic music DJ and producer, her achievements alone do not reveal the depth of her artistry. Cassy has a mystique that tends to captivate and intrigue the attentive listener or observer. When playing a set, she exudes an aura of serenity and passion for what she's doing. Her mystique is due in part to her unique and diverse set of cultural and musical influences. She has lived in different countries and drawn inspiration from a wide array of musical sources. Cassy can be seen on the Beatport stage during Movement 2010 in Detroit's Hart Plaza over Memorial Day Weekend, May 29-31, 2010.
