When I started my radio show in 2003, women were represented in electronic music mainly as voices, often sampled. Since then, women & trans-led initiatives have created spaces where non-male producers & DJs could be safe & respected. Music has been immeasurably enriched as a consequence.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

Hi 🤍 I’m reaching out to ask if you could help my mother with a donation toward her urgent treatment. Her retinal condition is very serious, and her remaining sight is at risk. Any amount you can give would mean so much to us. Please keep my mother in your prayers. 😭🙏

Of course there's still plenty of sexism and abuse in the music industry. A lot more needs to be done. There are a lot of male gatekeepers (and some non-male) who can't be bothered to find female & non-binary artists or DJs for lineups and playlists. So... a bit of progress nonetheless.

Hello, my friend ❤️ My mother is in the hospital with a serious retinal condition and bleeding. 🙏 If you can donate whatever you’re able to afford, it would mean so much to us and help me get her the treatment she urgently needs. Thank you from my heart. ❤️
