I remember a few years ago I used to hate house music so I decided to go to Dimensions Festival last year and give it a go. “My personal music taste is definitely expanding every month. As with all good DJs it is an ever-expanding music taste that fuels her craft. I don’t suffer any sexism or misogyny and if it happens I've been lucky to not have experienced it.” It is her rejection of norms in the industry and in her selections that constantly puts her on the top bills and has earned her slots on Radio 1Xtra, NTS radio and at legendary club Fabric. I try to take little notice to people’s attitudes towards sexuality in the industry. It’s best to get that issue of being a “woman in music” out the way early one, and get to the music. It’s a sad state of affairs when the gender of a artist is still a discussion point but in 2016, especially in the world of DJs, it is still something that enters the discussion. Ahead of her set at Annie Mac presents Lost and Found, this summer in Malta, Barely Legal took time to let us into her musical world. With a name historically associated with a strain of pornography, London DJ Barely Legal displays a tongue-in-cheek understanding of her position as one of the best young and female DJs.
