 Behind the Music with Mia Wook

Who am I?

My name is Mia Wook, formerly known as Miss Mandala.

I am a mandala artist turned Country Music DJ! 

In 2016 I went to my first music festival, and my life completely changed. 

I've done vending, performing, and live painting at festivals but it didn't scratch the itch. I realized what I really wanted to do was DJ. 

I wish I would have started learning about music years ago, but I blame lack of representation. So my mission in life is to be that representation for others. 

What Kind of Music Do You Play??? DID YOU SAY COUNTRY?

Yup, I'm playing Country mixed with Experimental Bass and Electronic Funk. 

I wasn't always a Wook, I used to be in a sorority! 

When I started working on becoming a DJ, I was making playlists and my goal was to get 150 songs and I couldn't find 150 dubstep songs I liked, or any other sub-genre of EDM. I could find 150 country songs I liked in a couple hours, so I didn't choose country, country chose me! 

Listen to it before you judge me! 😁

What is This Blog About?

How to Become a DJ from Scratch

When I started DJing I felt so isolated and I felt like nobody wanted to give me any useful advice, I still kinda feel that way. I don't want you to feel that way so I'm gonna publish everything I know about DJing because gatekeeping is dumb. Some Topics I will be covering: 

• Music Theory
• DJ Techniques and Tricks
• Music Industry Insights 
• Branding 
• Content Marketing 

What I Love About Country Music 

I think if people learned more about country music they would love it like I do! The United States is deeply divided on all major political issues, and I think hating country is only making those problems worse. 

How to Teach Yourself Anything

I taught myself to paint, and now I'm self-teaching DJing. I want to empower you to teach yourself anything that interests you. Topics I will be covering:

• Reviewing Online Learning Platforms
• How to Learn Things for Free
