Crack Magazine contributor Nina Posner meets the founders of New York collective Discwoman.
“This September marked the third anniversary of the party that started it all – a two-day showcase of 12 women-identified DJs including Volvox, Shannon Funchess and Lauren Flax, at cosy techno spot Bossa Nova Civic Club, with the proceeds going to a local non-profit. The festival was intended to be a one-off, but the press quickly picked up on it, and soon they were collaborating with local organisers to throw Discwoman parties in Boston, Philadelphia, and Puerto Rico. Discwoman was off to a whirlwind start, and nightlife institutions immediately began to take notice.”
At Rewire 2018, Discwoman will be represented by Umfang, Volvox, Ziúr and Deena Abdelwahed. Watch Umfang and Volvox go back to back in the Boiler Room below and learn more about their sets at next year’s festival at:Umfang, Volvox, Ziúr and Deena Abdelwahed.
