Welcome to the Djai Skjellerup website. 

You made it! It could well be that you have heard of me because I write songs and play them live in the virtual reality world at www.secondlife.com . If that is the case then its good to see you! Have a look around the site and if there is anything you wish was here but isn't then let me know. The best part of writing and performing songs is meeting people who enjoy what I do and chatting with them about music. I am always happy to make contact with anyone who wants to chat about any aspect of what I do. My contact details are at the bottom of this page.

If you have just stumbled here by accident then let me explain what I do. I am an independent singer/songwriter and I do most of my gigging in an online virtual reality environment called Second Life (SL for short).  I play totally live so what you hear is original songs played on piano and sung by the writer. If you use Second Life then you'll see a digital representation of me on a virtual stage in a virtual location. If you do not want to use SL then you can also listen to my live audio stream using iTunes in which there is an option off one of the menus to connect to an audio stream.   I play live 2 or 3 times a week and you can see my schedule on the upcoming events page but please note that the times are adjusted to fit to the Second Life timezone which is GMT +8 hours.  For most of my shows I use this audio stream location http://38.96.148.45:8862 so this is the URL you would put into iTunes if you want to listen without going into SL.

Now it is 2009 I am going to make a push to get my debut album finished and soon that will be on sale both in world and through other online vendors. It's entitled "Ice Age Diaries" so keep an eye out for it later this year. There are a few samples of tracks on this website that will feature on my album.  

I have some other earlier tracks that you can hear at my myspace page http://www.myspace.com/djaiskjellerup1 

Also I have a prescence here at http://www.thesixtyone.com/DjaiSkjellerup/ where a cool system of bumping the music you like ensure that artists can rise up a playlist of all the music on the site. If you like my songs please go the The Sixty One and bump my songs!


So thanks for dropping by and if there is anything you would like to know about my music or maybe you would be interested in booking me then please contact me either in Second Life or by using this email address which you should easily be able determine from the long hand: djaiskjellerup <at> googlemail.com 

Enjoy the rest of the site!
