The Source: Her Source | Grammy Nominated EDM Artist, JES Dishes on Women DJs & More

April 6, 2014

Closing out Ultra Music Festival, Grammy nominated EDM DJ and artist JES dishes on women DJs, having it all, and more.

It was once said of Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire that a woman can do anything a man can do, except backwards and in high heels.

Grammy nominated singer Jes Brieden, better known as JES, or the singer of Motorcycle’s hauntingly beautiful song, “As the Rush Comes,” is inclined to agree.

Ms. Brieden, for all her dainty, feminine beauty, is a beast when she’s on the turn tables.

“DJ-ing has always been kind of an all male thing for a while now, but I think it’s getting better. I don’t come across too much sexism, but I definitely have to fight hard to be heard,” she said. ”Women are so outnumbered, even though there are a lot of female DJs that are pushing right now. It can be frustrating, but I have to be fierce about it. I want to pave the way for other women. In five years from now, I’m hoping to see a lot more women DJs, because women, we aren’t going away.”

On the heels of her Unleash the Beat Platinum Mix compilation release, JES might seems like her career has gotten to a point where smooth operation has become the norm…well, that’s exactly why us assumers don’t have music careers.

“Like most long term achievements it’s the determination and drive combined with focus and discipline to keep going regardless of the ups and downs that creates success and stability,” says the American Electronic Goddess. “I try to maintain the same work ethic and principles that I had when I was starting and that feeds my passion for creating music.”

Out Now: BT, JES & Fractal – Letting Go (Antillas & Dankann / LTN Remixes)

March 5, 2014

Antillas & Dankann, bt, Fractal, JES, letting go, LTN, Remixes

Debuted on internationally acclaimed producer BT‘s iTunes No. 1 Dance album A Song Across Wires, ‘Letting Go’ showcased BT’s impeccable production fused with Fractal‘s wobbly talents and JES‘ powerful vocals. Now the stunning, genre-bending track has received two new remixes from Italian duo Antillas & Dankann and upcoming Indonesian producer LTN, out now exclusively on Beatport through Armada Music.

Antillas & Dankann’s remix takes inspiration from classic rock with the addition of a driving drum that leads ‘Letting Go’ into an epic big room drop with rugged basslines and techy beats. LTN goes a different route with his melodic progressive take using euphoric synths and a pulsating rhythm that gets you on your feet, making both tracks a far cry from the original but just as good in their own right.
