Top gifts for Annie Mac, but are they bangers?

Posted on 25. Jun, 2009 by Rob Watson in Female

It’s 1am. I’m standing in a warehouse full of people, having just danced my ass off to Calvin Harris.

Despite the fact that there is currently no music playing and i’m squished between a bunch of other people, i have no intention of going anywhere.

The reason being, any minute now, I will be jumping to some high quality, rumbling electronic beats – all courtesy of DJ Annie Mac.

It was an awesome set and it got me thinking “If i was a friend of Annie Mac, what would i buy her for a present?”

Before i go into my ideas, here’s a (very) brief low down on Annie:

• She was born on 18 July 1978
• She presents 2 radio shows
• She DJs at clubs around the world

So here’s what i came up with:

Vintage Record Coasters

Vinyl is cool

Sure, it may weigh a ton and you may have to pay £10 just for one song, but there’s no DJ alive that wouldn’t confess to a love of vinyl.

Annie may stick to CDs when playing out, but these coasters, made from recycled records, are the perfect accessory for any music junkies house.

Keeping with the DJ theme…

Annie’s own Mix Tape Tote!

Throw in some beats, chuck in a bassline, add a melody or 2 and away you go!

Extremely cool and useful too. Can’t say much fairer than that.

Flower Ring

Judging by Annie’s Facebook photos it’s clear she is drawn towards colourful, modern jewellery that use bold shapes.

So how about this beauty?

Hand made from glass beads, they come in a set of 3, which you can wear individually or all together to create the chunky look you see in this photo.

Metallic Luggage Tags

Ah, the life of an international DJ.

London one day, New York the next, then summer in Ibiza.

With all this traveling it’s pretty important you have some good looking luggage tags!

OK. So it’s not as important as organising your currency, but it can’t be far behind.

Spider Catcher

If you follow Annie’s excellent Twitter profile you’d know she’d had some recent un-welcome house guests.

You’d also know her current spider catcher is no good at grabing the eight legged ones, once they reach the corner of the room.

So help a girl out here, with this – the worlds no.1 humane spider catcher.

Not sure Annie would fancy going up against an arachnid with a new weapon? Well , this one even comes with a plastic spider, so she can hone her skills before going into battle!

Update!

I sent Annie a message on Twitter to see if i got any of these gifts right. She replied:

“He’s good”
