There are without a doubt many, many well known talented male DJs and producers around the globe, but how many female DJs and producers could you name?
To be honest even I struggled to make this post off the top of my head and asked around for a few pointers! Many female DJs it seems are struggling very hard to keep up with the game…
I came across many websites and profiles that were out of date and what was possibly a blossoming career in trance has sadly wilted away.
The ten below I hope some of you have heard of, or at least will see make further headway in their careers…enjoy!


Claudia Cazacu
Quote from her Biography on freshdjs.com…
“Moving to the UK from Romania 10 years ago, Claudia Cazacu soon found herself at home in the thriving London clubbing scene. Attending events week in week out, it wasn’t long before she decided her destiny belonged behind the decks! Launching her career in 2006, Claudia has followed in the footsteps of the new ‘super’ generation of DJs that are supremely talented both behind the decks and in the studio.”

. I think that female DJs can be just as good and even better than men at djing. What do you think?
February 19th, 2010 at 9:04 pm
Hi Susan Roberts!
I certainly think some of the girls cut it above many of the male DJs. I believe they have to typically work harder to get noticed, but then again the scene overall is a lot more competitive than it was 10 years ago.
Any particular female DJs that you recommend in the trance scene?
March 18th, 2010 at 9:17 pm
Check Dj Miss Phoenix!
She is a very talented upcomming dj!
You don’t see many good female TRANCE deejanes!
