WELCOME TO
HELLO!
I’m Cara (she/her), the music obsessive behind Rave the Date – a fresh and alternative DJ for truly unique events.​
My musical identity began as a purely emo, metal and punk gal and I still love to relive my angsty teenager days whenever I hear a heavy guitar riff playing nearby.
I’m still in touch with the heavier side of music, but I’ve also expanded my tastes over the years with a huge variety of genres and I adore discovering new sounds. Depending on my mood I'll play techno, disco, funk and soul, dnb, jazz, grunge, 90s pop, punk, house, garage, folk and so much more.
MY SKILLS
​I learned to mix in 2022, encouraged by friends who loved the playlists I created for parties and trips away together. Honing the technical side to DJing has inspired me to turn my knowledge and passion for music into something I can share with other people, and I’m having the most incredible time doing it.
​
My love and enthusiasm for such a diverse range of music makes me versatile and suited to a huge range of events. It’s not just my taste that makes me stand out from the others - I’m a good listener who will give you the most personalised party playlist you could possibly dream of. I've worked in social sciences for many years which has given me an understanding of body language and reading the crowd, so I'll make sure even your fussiest guests have a reason to dance!
THE PERSONAL TOUCH
I want to bring a fresh alternative to ‘cookie-cutter’ tracklists, so if you’re looking for someone that knows diverse and interesting genres and can blend them together seamlessly then I'm your woman. ​
​
If you'd like to know more you can see updates from recent appearances on my social media pages, or read about some of my past events via my blog posts which include sample track lists, tips and tricks I've learned along the way, and info on the venues I've worked with so far.
