For a few hours, at least, it was hard to disagree. Two of Eklektic's resident DJs are also women, Sage and Stareyes. But while the female vibe may be what makes Eklektic feel so welcoming, Dmarie stresses that it isn't an all-girl party like Sister. We do let men play. We highlight female DJs, but it's more about talent.
People are here to express themselves.
She adds, though, that there are lots of new female jungle DJs. All the new DJs that are women are spinning jungle. It's hard-core, and women want to feel strong. It is hard-core. The music they spin at Eklektic is gritty, funky, fast and raw.
