When the girl of your dreams dances her way into your life and tells you she’s a raver, you may be wondering what's the best way to experience this new world with your new queen.

I remember how shocked I was to discover that Rezz, a woman, was making heavier, darker music in a predominantly male-dominated industry. The sinking realization soon followed - if I, as a woman, was surprised by another woman’s success, how prevalent was sexism in the EDM community as a whole?  

Women such as Wenzday, Festfashions, Tasha Tripp and Claudia Pena are all a part of a movement focused around fighting sexism and shaping the EDM industry into what its meant to be- a community of love, equality and acceptance for all.

The following five DJs have really stood out and are making their name and sound heard. We’re hoping 2019 will be the year of not just new music, but tons of new rising artists.

So, I sat down with a few fans (and new friends of mine) of all ages to gain their perspective on EDM and how it has impacted their life.
