Sexy or Sexist :: Dance Music’s Latest Debate

No Female DJs, Lots Of [Almost] Naked Rave Girls—Does EDM Have A Sexism Problem? 

Several weeks ago, we caught a Facebook post by electro star Peaches, whose sexually-charged career has challenged the norms of mainstream sexuality since her first hit, “Fuck The Pain Away.” The presumably feminist performer called out UK dance music magazine DJ Mag’s annual reader-voted Top 100 DJ List for containing zero women. “DJ MAG! Your Top 100 DJ boy club list can eat a dick! Where the ladies at???” wrote the often controversial performer. Look around the dance floor (and the online), and it seems the ladies are everywhere—in various states of undress.

Chilly Gonzales: New Ivory Towers album, and film. (Interview)

Tracking him from Japan, Berlin, and to Canada. I finally got to have a quick phone interview with the hard working talent now under the name Chilly Gonzales.

No, he is more.  He is a humorus hip cat that focused his attention on the minutiae of his musical and writing craft to develop his own approach to making a film. Watch the trailer for a glimpse at Gonzales’ version of a sports parody.

“We were doing some Robert Di Nero shet!” – Chilly Gonzales

Chilly Gonzales “I Am Europe” w/Tiga & Boys Noize (Video)

What do the creme de la creme of European techno do when they want a break from beats and bass? Apparently many decide to plug into the comical euro-pop of Chilly Gonzalez, the Fiest-producing, Daft Punk-paling, Peaches-partnering piano performer whose first video off his Boyz Noize-produced album, Ivory Towers, features a guest appearance by his fellow Montreal native Tiga as the two compete in the ultimate sports challenge.
