Ten Quotes From Incredible Women DJs

“There is something that is underneath the mainstream, which is super exciting. There’s so much great music. Like, you snorkel and then you see all the coral.”
~Nina Kraviz, LANVIN (2019)

“I am a woman, playing and producing music, and I’m bloody well proud of it too.”

Quotes From Incredible Women DJ

“For me, it has always been important to feel a connection to the crowd, by talking to them online before and after my gigs, to feel connected during my set. I’m really focused on the crowd during all of my sets.”
~Amelie Lens, LANVIN (2019)

“Everyone was like, ‘no, you can’t do this. No, you can’t do that. It’s not for women.’ It wasn’t easy for a woman like me to throw parties and defy all the conventional customs and cultures. I still did it.”
~Nicole Moudaber, Forbes (2019)

“The scene feels like a completely different place from when I first started out. It’s incredible seeing so much more diversity when it comes to gender, race, sexuality, and even general music styles. We still have a long way to go, but at least the cogs are in motion and are moving in the right direction.”
~Maya Jane Coles, Hunger Magazine (2023)

“I believe order will always turn into disorder, which will turn into order, and back again. Sometimes you can’t have order without going through that disorder because you need chaos to get yourself back up and grow.”
~Alison Wonderland, DJ Mag (2018)

“Playing records is like traveling through time. We DJs are looking for the message in an old record, thinking about how we can integrate it into our sets today, and then: boom, the club explodes!”
~Ellen Allien, VICE (2017)

This month and throughout the year, support women DJs by attending shows, buying music, and spreading the word about their incredible talent. And DANCE, because we’re all united under the power of the beat!
