DJ Girl

No longer mistaken for groupies and lap dancers by our male peers, the challenges faced by any woman in the music industry have changed. It's no longer necessary to pump up the triceps so we can parade about brandishing record crates. It's not about proving we can play hard on the decks or hardball on the phone. We've done more than our share of whining about the tribulations of being a strong woman in an industry dominated by an 'older-than-old-school boys' club. We've exhausted the classic "No, I'm not witht the DJ; I AM the DJ" mantra and corresponding issues of DJ-first; gender second. We have announced, in stereo, that we are tired of being interviewed about being a woman instead of about being musicians. In fact, the whole female-DJ thing has faded into an anti-climactic non-issue. Boring. Old. Tired. And so the focus shifts to where it has always belonged: upon the music.

This anticipated project showcases some of the most brilliant contributions to the evolution of what we have dubbed dance music; contributions that happen to have been produced exclusively by women. Spanning the spectrum from progressive house, trance, breaks, jungle & techno, all fourteen tracks on this compilation have been proven to be musically and culturally significant.
