Hi Progressive House Lovers

Miss Monique gradually made a name for herself and became one of the most recognised DJs in Eastern Europe. Miss Monique is also considered the most recognised female progressive house artist in Europe.

Miss Monique, stage name of Olesia Arkusha (Алеся Аркуша in Cyrillic alphabet), born 1992, is a Ukrainian DJ. [...]

She and her partner figured her name would be too complicated for foreigners, and after considering several French names, they chose "Miss Monique". [...]

After the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine began on 24 February 2022, Miss Monique and her family spent the first two weeks sleeping in cars on the streets of Kyiv, then had to flee to Vinnytsia in early March, and a few days later out of the country.
