    Musical Influences
    Everything from 70s disco to 80s europop/glam pop/dance/house to 90s techno/trance/breaks/runway, all the music she has heard in clubs in New York, Philly, Boston, and San Francisco. Gorgeous Girl's most important influences are her music teachers in elementary school without whom none of this would be possible. She would also like to thank the engineers who have gold and platinum credits to their names for teaching her the tricks of the trade.

    Artist History
    Divinity Lee aka Gorgeous Girl has produced and released over 100 songs in techno, trance, and other dance styles in various media formats (vinyl, CD, MP3) under various names over the past 12 years. She has worked with noted deejays (Jorge Moreno, Peyote) and studio producer/engineers (John Wicks, Jeff Chestek) and has earned the respect of many of her peers. Mid-2000 was a turning point in her musical career when she discovered mp3.com and a number of other online music providers. This new distribution channel has allowed a larger audience to hear her music on a daily basis. ---- Divinity's path as a solo music producer and composer is quite intriguing. " I don't have a traditional background in classical composition like some composers do. That makes me unique because I have a different perspective on how I approach music composition. My mind is not bound by a lot of rules, but my music is still very much structured in a traditional story-like way. Much of what I've learned in music composition I picked up by studying great deejays and producer/engineers. I learned what works and what doesn't by getting deejays to playtest my records in club environments." ---- "I try to listen and absorb as many different styles of music as I can," Divinity says. "The different styles of music are like different languages. You can never stop learning all of the subtle intricacies of each style." Her arsenal of synthesizers and sound modules is mostly unparalleled in her hometown of Philadelphia. "I try to enhance my gear list every month, sometimes adding the latest and greatest, sometimes adding vintage, but always best-of-breed." It is this careful selection of best-of-breed music gear that enables Divinity to create her distinctive style of techno, a smooth and carefully crafted blend of the best of modern and vintage sounds. ---- Gorgeous Girl's music has been played and performed in dance clubs and raves all over the world. Her music has appeared in indie films, interactive CD-ROMs, and three serials on MTV.
