Where are the Female DJs?
I went to my first drum and bass rave in 2007 when I was sixteen years old. Dancing around in a grotty warehouse in the middle of the Somerset countryside, I felt at home for the first time. After that rave it became the thing I lived for. Fourteen years later I started DJing and producing drum and bass, becoming more heavily involved in the scene. With a new lens through which to see the world due to the evolution of social media and a university degree, I started to notice the lack of female names, and not just behind the decks, and it led me to thinking, why is there such a gender imbalance in the EDM industry?
