As this issue of BOI Magazine hits the
street, DJ/Remixer Tracy
Young will
undoubtedly still be basking in the glow of having just headlined
the signature event of Miami's 2009 Winter Party Festival: this past Sunday's Beach Party. This
huge honor is but another feather in the cap for the supremely
talented DJ who has been a big hit for almost a decade within
the gay dance club/circuit party scene. She's not only spun
at many of the most famous and biggest nightclub venues around
the world, Young has also been a featured and/or the main event
DJ for dance festivals such as White Party Palm Springs, Orlando's Gay Disney, Montreal's Black & Blue, NYC's Gay Pride Pier Dance, and the former Fireball that
was held here in Chicago. As well, Young became known as "DJ
to the stars," spinning various private parties for Cher, Smashing Pumpkins, and Lenny Kravitz, as well as providing the soundscape
for Madonna and Guy Ritchie's wedding reception. 
More than just a DJ, Young has proven
to be a creative force in the studio over the years with her
various remix and production projects. Her remixes of Madonna's "Music"
and "Hung Up" have garnered worldwide acclaim while
dance floors have been energized routinely by her treatments
of songs by the likes of Shakira, Pink, Cyndi Lauper, Kristine W,
Britney Spears, Stevie Nicks, and Christina
Aguilera.
Her original works, which have become more plentiful of late,
includes the floor-filler "What's Done Is Done" featuring
Ceevox. The track is on Young's most recent CD, Genesis pt. 1, a high energy continuous
mix that's been produced by her own Ferosh record label
and that ably represents her current groove when she's in the
DJ booth.
