PINK.WAV x HER Project

The percentage of womxn DJs is estimated to be around 10-15%, with womxn DJs in line-ups reaching only 17% to 25%. Flinta DJs and producers are still a rarity, and showcasing new talent is a demanding, endless quest.

#HER is a music project that was established in 2018 in Greece to showcase, support, introduce, and celebrate womxn DJs and producers in the electronic music scene.<br>Quality surpasses and undercuts gender, age, nationality, and solely focuses on the talent and inspiration that characterize these women.<br> <br>The idea and concept belong to Fofi Tsesmeli aka Fo, one of the most beloved and renowned DJs, with a long and respected trajectory in the dance music scene and the media.<br> <br>The project was launched by organizing several successful events in Athens. International DJs such as Kim Ann Foxman, VONDA7, and Skin of Skunk Anansie teamed up with local talent. HER was also a co-organizer of the event “Women in Techno_logy”, a unique audiovisual show, which took place in the Athens Concert Hall (Megaron). It was the first time techno was played in the premises, and only by women.

Some of their highlights as HER were a B2B performance at the first edition of Sónar Athens festival, several collaborations with Athens Pride, World Pride, Stavros Niarchos Cultural Centre, and Volos Festival. HER curated and organized a 24-hour takeover of Cannibal Radio, featuring 24 local DJs for International Women’s Day, a two-day takeover of Selina Hotel with workshops, panels, an art exhibition, party, and organized and participated in several discussions and workshops for the visibility of femininities and underrepresented groups in the music industry.

In 2020, they established the Athenian chapter of shesaid.so, a global network of women in the music industry fighting for equality.

The long-term plan for this project is to evolve into a collective promoting womxn and gender minorities in music through knowledge exchange, international collaborations, showcase events, and more.
