My name is Donna-Marie A.K.A Donna Birt and I am from Auckland, New Zealand. I opt for moody yet uplifting melodic melodies with techy bass lines, and am influenced by the likes of Maceo Plex, HOSH, Tinlicker, blaktone, Grum, Ann Clue and Boris Brejcha to name a few. I play Progressive House, Melodic Techno, Minimal Techno and Main Room Techno.

I started DJing back in 2001, where I heavily featured on the London party circuit, playing at all of the major venues in London. I could be found regularly playing at the likes of Brixton Academy, Camden Palace (now KOKO), The Fridge, Shepherds Bush Empire, Turnmills, Egg London, Scala and Ministry of Sound. I also toured Internationally throughout South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and to the US to San Francisco where I earned a reputation for my style of chunky, groovy and driving techy vibes. Since returning home to NZ, my sound has refined and matured to what you hear today.

I'm partway through writing my 4th album and have a heap of new tunes to deliver including a number 3 on the Beatport Top 100 Progressive House chart recently. Having a number of releases on Paul Oakenfold’s label Perfecto Black has been a massive career highlight along with releases on Freegrant Music, Manual Music & Polyptych to name a few. I have had some amazing gigs including recently closing the main stage on the first night at NZ's very own AUM Festival 2022, playing Dimension Festival 2023, Yatra Festival 2023, and just recently returning from a couple of gigs in Los Angeles, California.
