At the core of Julia's music is an ever-present element of emotional truth...
Julia Govor was born to move people. She made her debut performing in a small military town in Abkhazia, which led to her become the cassette-DJ at the town's nightclub. Every Saturday, the ever-diligent Julia was on stage performing new songs by Russian singers or songs written by her oldest sister, Galina.
Soon thereafter, she became the lead singer in the locally-famous military band Moryachka. Still sharpening her skills, she began using Paul White's elegant silver Tascam to play pop songs by Sandra, Mr. President, 20 Finger and other 90s pop divas. The big payback: in 2000 she moved to Temruk in Souther Russia where she became a bonafide DJ, playing CDs and mixing on a Vestax PMC01A.
Then the big city came calling. In 2004, she eventually moved to Moscow to study film and TV production. This is when her vocational arc as an all-around entertainment maven began to fully take flight. She became an on-air personality for Miller TV and MTV and went on to interview some of the industry's most prolific players, such as Ricardo Villalobos and Richie Hawtin.
