Welcome to the official Djai Skjellerup website.
Hi! :)
The most likely reason you have visited this site is because you have heard of me from the online virtual world, Second Life, where I regularly play live shows. If you have stumbled here for another reason then please have a good look around to see what I am about or check out one of my gigs by logging onto www.secondlife.com and looking me up!
I am a piano based singer/songwriter and I like to believe that I write the sort of songs you think you know already.....but not because I am plagarising!!! My modus operandi is to write catchy melodies with grown up lyrics. You only have to hear them once or twice and they become an "earworm", trapping themselves in your subconcious mind. With about 4 months of performing live in Second Life behind me I can honestly say I have enjoyed every minute of it. It's a great feeling to be able to play the songs I have written for audiences that are so appreciative. Maybe if you do catch one of my shows you might like what I am doing but whatever you feel about music be sure to say hello if you see me around!
There are a few samples of tracks on this website that will feature on my album which is due out early in 2008. I will release it in Second Life to start with and if it has some measure of success there then I will consider whether to make it available through iTunes.
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 at djaiskjellerup@googlemail.com
Enjoy the rest of the site!
