Gina Star is a DJ and producer originally from Dallas, Texas. After moving to LA in 2006 to further her career, she was hailed by the LA Times and E! Entertainment as one of the most talented and sought after DJʼs in the city, and was welcomed into some of LAʼs most exclusive V.I.P. celebrity endorsed nightclubs playing her own special style of big room uplifting house.
Moving across the pond to the UK in 2009 to further her DJ & production career, Gina propelled herself into the limelight working with Toolroom Records and gaining support on her productions, notably Pete Tong spinning her Cirez D & Sunscreem mashup to the masses on his Radio 1 show.
Gina Star released ʻThis Is Hollywoodʼ which entered the Beatport Top 100 at #10, and #1 on the Progressive House chart. David Guetta featured it on his internationally syndicated F*** Me Iʼm Famous radio show. The track features the instantly recognizable vocal talent of Roland Clark preaching ʻWelcome to Hollywood, whatʼs your dreamʼ.
ʻI Want It Nowʼ debuted at WMC ʻ10, and uses the unmistakable hook from the legendary band Queen – I Want It All.& I Want It Now!!! Given the thumbs up from Queenʼs management via EMI, this project developed into a full release for Toolroom Records, with remixes from Robbie Rivera, Keith & Superbeatz, and Mind Electric.
Tiësto featured the record on his international ʻClub Lifeʼ radio show and podcast, Judge Jules named it his ʻTried and Tested Tune of the Weekʼ on his Radio 1 Show, and Gina was busy doing guest interviews for a long list of shows all over the world that also featured the record. David Guetta, Mark Knight, DONS and Jerome Isma-Ae are just a few of the other DJs who supported ʻI Want It Nowʼ.
2010 also saw the release of the Toolroom Miami compilation for which Gina mixed ʻThe Clubʼ disc, and Toolroomʼs Ibiza 2010 comp for which she mixed the ʻAfterclub disc. She also did an ad campaign for Gio-Goi Clothing which was circulated throughout Europe. In 2011, Gina spent much of her time touring and in the studio completing a handful of tracks that will see release in 2012. She mixed the Toolroom Miami 2011 comp, and the Toolroom Best of 2011 comp.
She recently finished a remix for Tiësto and Mark Knight 'Beautiful World' which is out now, and her remix of Chris Willis "Too Much In Love" went to #4 in the Billboard Club chart; both are currently getting radio spins around the world. She launched a self titled monthly Podcast which counts down her current top 10. Her new track 'Midnight' V Yazoo was in the Miami Buzz chart and is getting early support and plays from Armin van Buuren, Fedde Le Grand, Mark Knight, Grum, Miss Nine, David Jones and Nicky Romero.
'Bliss' is the first instrumental single to be released in the Summer of 2012, and the remainder of the year will see singles featuring the vocal talents of Chris Willis, Marcella Detroit, Jonathan Mendelsohn, Jussie Smollett, and Laza Morgan.
Gina's had single releases on Toolroom Records and Cr2 Records in UK & Eire, Vicious in Australia and New Zealand, NEWS in Belgium, Holland and Luxembourg, TIME Records in Italy, We Play in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, Family Tree Music in Scandinavia, Just Music in South Africa, Blanco Y Negro in Spain, Warner Bros in Israel, and Atlantic Records for North America.
