It Takes a Woman

Tuesday, October 12th, 2010

I‘m not really sure which nodes are the aching ones, but what I do know is that the notion of a female IDM producer makes my nodes ache.

Everyone is a dude. This world is all dudes. And inside this world of dudes, there exists a population of hipster DJ’s that, unfortunately, is comprised of an even larger percentage of dudes. But here’s the cool part: If you wade through all the muscle and propecia in that Dj population, you’ll manage to find a meager 3% of them that don’t have penises, and that somehow makes them interesting. Do they offer anything different? No. Well, that is besides anatomy. Are they potentially even less qualified than their male counterparts? Maybe, maybe not. All I know is that they’ve got a draw to them, and these are just the DJ’s; Inside that already very tiny nest of a population, there exists an even smaller portion of women who actually produce music. And inside that population, there are a few–just a few–who produce good music, and they, my friends, are the women who are to die for.

Tokimonsta is one of those women. Nuff said.
