Millie Cotton

Thinking back to her first memories of music, Millie Cotton remembers a childhood soundtracked by 90's rave anthems, jungle & UKG. Fast-forward to 2023, those varied foundations have influenced Millie in never being shy to experiment. Making the move to London to study at Central Saint Martins, Millie found herself living opposite Corsica Studios; she immediately immersed herself into dance culture. Dark, sweaty nights at Plastic People, Corsica, and The Nest were her first proper insight into the world of electronic and house music. After a brief foray in fashion and music journalism after uni, which saw Millie interview the likes of Charli XCX and Jorja Smith for NYLON magazine, Millie landed her first ever booking - a six-week booking in-store for Nike - and seamlessly fused together her appreciation of both fashion and music. Since then, Millie has kept dance floors heaving and stereos turned up high, curating euphoric, hands-in-the-air moments at festivals and clubs alike. More recently, Millie has been honing her sound as a songwriter/producer and is working on her first solo-project. Millie's interest in carving out a long-lasting DJ career is also focused on nourishing its ecosystem and taking on a ‘pay-it-forward’ attitude.
