2005 would prove to be a busy year for Missrep, focusing her efforts more on her station, AftershockRadio. This year would also be the mark of
Missrepresent's first international residency at Bambu in Northern Germany. ASR's entire roster would later travel alongside her residency
in various feature spots. She has been the cover story of EGG Magazine, a music information source. To close out 2005, Missrepresent would play on
the Movement Tour as a resident at Brunels and would become the only female DJ to play on Dillinja and Lemon D's Valve Sound System so many times.

2008 is off to a great start, booking headlining DJs and MCs for two bi-monthly events in Gloucester and Leamington Spa.> Missrepresent's website
has received a facelift, moving towards a more professional, flash-based appearance (instead of the previous forum-based formula), and ASR looks to be
ever-expanding as she promotes a large venue in Coventry. She is now supported by Fly53 Clothing (who also supports the likes of
The Klaxons). Bookings include upcoming events for Bedlam @ Carling Academy, as well as bookings abroad to Tenerife for a second time
and Rome (in a massive 7,000 capacity outdoor event). Among her most notable accomplishments, Missrepresent was nominated at Raveology’s
Drum & Bass Awards for Best Female Artist and Breakthrough DJ, while AfterShockRadio was nominated for Best Internet Radio Station
for the second year in a row. Professional support continues from the biggest labels in drum and bass including Ram, Grid, and Easy
while Missrepresent joins industry giant, Ecler/Ortofon as part of their pro team. The team is headed by Sonny Wharton and is in association
with Henleydesigns.co.uk. Missrepresent is also preparing for the world’s biggest drum ‘n bass festival, Innovation in the Sun, taking place
this June in Barcelona, where she will play as a resident.
