In a recent joint interview at the Amsterdam Dance Event, techno superstars Amelie Lens and Charlotte de Witte urged fans to stop pitting female DJs against each other.
Ahead of the pair's first collaborative performance, they sat down for an intimate panel interview at ADE, the world's largest electronic music summit. Amid light-hearted anecdotes and reflections on the state of the current music industry, Lens and de Witte spoke about the dangers of female DJs and asked fans not to compare them.
“It's very emotionally and creatively draining,” Lens said before noting that male artists rarely face the same problem. “Honestly, no one ever says, 'AIROD is better than Farrago. That's typical of female DJs. So stop it, please.”
After expressing her agreement, de Witte chimed in with some words of encouragement for female DJs and producers facing the proverbial jury.
“We are not against each other, we are with each other,” he said. “We are the brotherhood. We support each other.”
