Today's episode is with Barbara Bonfiglio, who is better known as Misstress Barbara. She has created/produced techno music/beats and DJ'ing for 26 years and has circled the globe dozens of times performing at the biggest clubs. She has put out too many EPS to count, the same is true of the compilations that she has been a part of, and she has written and sang two pop albums to date, I'm No Human and Many Shades of Grey .
In this episode, Barbara candidly shares about the struggles of feeling tied up, being boxed-in and having multiple publics who expect different things from her. These entities include venues and booking agents who book her, promoters and fans of her DJ, techno work, and the growing number of fans who want to hear her melodies on vehicles like the aforementioned pop albums. The fact that so much of this takes place within a fandom sporting a shelf life of a mere two or three years compounds the problem even more.
It is not a wonder that she has sought balance in sailing, flying small airplanes and gliders, snow boarding, motorcycles and competitive tennis. Most importantly, it seems, Barbara brings a knowledge and a wisdom to the task of keeping her ego in check. In this episode, we have a great conversation about this and we're confident that listeners will root for Barbara's finding a boat to sail and some instruments to create some melodies.
