A Roller-coaster Ride to Success

 

 

Globally renowned Thai techno DJ Nakadia took a hiatus from the rave scene to tell her story in Positive Energy – Becoming Nakadia

 

We’ve danced to her percussion groves and powerful beats, and now it’s time to get to know Nakadia a little better. The Isaan girl, a phenomenon on the global DJ circuit, recently completed her autobiography titled Positive Energy – Becoming Nakadiawhich describes her inspiring journey from the rice paddies in Nakhon Ratchasima to DJ booths at major electronic music festivals around the world. It’s the fascinating story of a self-made artist who has worked hard to overcome obstacles and prejudices and make her dreams come true, always with a smile on her face.

 

“It’s the story of my life, and I hope it will inspire people to stay optimistic in these difficult times,” says the 40-year-old DJ. “The book vividly describes Nakadia’s ups and downs, her triumphs and her disasters,” explains Sebastian Lehmann, Nakadia’s manager and co-author. ‘It captures the moment she discovered techno and knew she was born to be a techno DJ, the hours spent relentlessly practising and crafting her sound, and the constant barrage of musical, political, social and sexual prejudice that at times made it seem like her career was over.
