.:: MISS BLISS ::.
Miss Bliss has been living and breathing music since birth. A selektor for the past ten years, and heavily involved in arts and culture on the mainland, her mandate is flow, rhythm and BASS. World bridger and dotz connector, the dub priestess is ready to drop the deep sounds for the Victoria bassheads. Reprazenting the yin for the night, Miss Bliss’ll start the flow off right throwing the bass down and around, and set the bar for her yang counterparts.
