Digital Dancefloors

With a strong focus on promoting diversity and equality in the music world, Danish Cultural Institute in India, Future Female Sounds, and BoxOut.fm arranged events that took place every weekend throughout October and early November 2020. Here Danish and Indian female DJs and VJs lit up the virtual dancefloor. Although many artists use live-stream, only a few of the artists behind the virtual mixers are women or non-binary DJs – which reflects the tendency in the global music industry in general.

 

DIGITAL DANCEFLOOR consisted of four online sessions with sets from two DJs and a VJ that contributed with specially designed visuals and took the audience on a virtual journey. With most dancefloors around the world being off limits, DIGITAL DANCEFLOOR offered a different experience to approx. 100,000 people.

 

Additionally, different talks took place, where artists shared their perspectives on gendered politics in the music industry and how it is to work as a musician during a pandemic.
