My name is Shelby Athouguia, host of Electric Feel on Friday nights from 8 pm to 10 pm. To honor the past, present, and future generations of female producers in electronic music during Women’s History Month, I have been playing curated sets every Friday in March 2024 that feature female producers. And I am not alone in my efforts. Both Electric Feel co-hosts, Toby Roberts and Chris Miranda, have joined me to lift up incredible women in electronic music.
There is so much incredible music from a multitude of female artists, and I have selected just a few that I have featured on Electric Feel shows this month. Each producer has origin stories and lengthy discographies rooted in a desire to create electronic music that harbors radical self-expression.
The predominately male-dominated electronic music industry has and continues to re-evaluate itself, especially in the last decade to rightfully recognize and create space for not only female producers but DJs, promoters, label owners, agents, and beyond. There is still much work to be done. Below is a list of artists I have played music from this month with links to each producer’s Bandcamp profiles. Please listen to, follow, and support these talented producers.

I would like to thank KXCI Community Radio, my radio co-hosts Toby, Chris and all Electric Feel hosts before us, the listeners and supporters of Electric Feel and this station, all of the pioneers who have paved the way and the dedicated women here and now who release incredible work for giving me the opportunity to share my excitement for these artists and for allowing me, a female DJ and producer, space to be myself.
