Both, the EDM DJs and the punters have always been freaks and nerds (not meant as an insult), just like me. Most successful djs have been gay, eg. Larry Levan, Danny Tenaglia, Frankie Knuckles etc. So to say that gays and gals were under-represented is just not so.
True, not too many women, but the ones that were, were either good and or forgettable, just like their male counterparts.
But this po-faced and BORING documentary wants us to believe that women in EDM have been under valued. Well i was in the seen during late 80's and through the 90's and i never saw any of this happen. On the contrary, in the smaller clubs women have been favored, for i don't know what reason. Certainly not because they were better djs.
Plus when i was spinning records, i can hardly remember any women coming up to the booth to check out how things are done. It was mainly guys.
I've wasted to much time on this review already, but this doc rubbed me in all the wrong ways.
Thank you.
