DJ Volvox

Age: 23

What you'll hear: "Industrial-influenced techno with a dark aesthetic," says the former go-go dancer. "I feel like I'm the DJ who's always known for being harder and faster."

Where she spins: Make it New, every Thursday night at Middlesex Lounge; occasional gigs at Rise

Weirdest request: "The best ever was a girl who asked me to play country while I was playing techno."

Motivation: "There's no better feeling in the world than controlling the energy of a whole room," she says. "Playing a track and watching the crowd go crazy is really divine."
