If there’s one DJ about to take the world by storm, it’s Charlotte de Witte. Never shying away from a
challenge, always malling her career and music the way she envisions it. And scorching through a myriad
of uncompromising, agressive techno sets across Europe every single weekend.
No surprise then, that the rest of the world is calling for Charlotte. After already having toured Asia, the U.S.
and Canada, she’ll be heading to Australia, New Zealand, Central and South America next. Few dj’s belong
to the group that can work on that level - from the biggest stages to the sweatiest basement raves.
Still her heart remains tied to the both the underground Techno scene and Belgium where she can be
found championing new talent both on her Saturday night radio show, ‘Playground Charlotte de Witte’ on
Studio Brussels, Belgium’s leading radio station, and at KNTXT de Witte’s residency at Brussels Techno
institution Fuse.
Having moved into production, de Witte has wasted no time in establishing herself as a serious talent in the
studio as well as behind the decks. But whilst a Charlotte de Witte DJ set is guaranteed to get you moving,
Charlotte’s own music has provided her with a chance to reveal another side.
Her agressive, stripped-down approach to her own tracks is a testament to that beforementioned dark side,
while the tracks also often feature her own vocals. “Making music really gives me a chance to tap into the
more emotional side of electronic music that I love. Music that has that melancholic side to it, I just find it so
much more interesting, whether DJ’ing, producing or just listening myself at home.”
Her release on Tiga’s Turbo Recordings “Weltschmerz EP” gained massive national and internatonal
support. For now, with her upcoming releases, her ongoing radio show, Fuse residency and a packed tour
diary de Witte shows no sign of slowing down. Despite her love of all things dark, the future for Charlotte de
Witte looks very bright indeed.
This is only the beginning, it seems. “My Feeling”, from Charlotte’s follow-up EP on Turbo Recordings
“Sehnsucht”, was Mixmag’s Track of 2016, the year in which Charlotte won Red Bull Elektropedia’s Award
for best producer in her native Belgium. To top it all off, Trax Magazine dubbed her ‘nouvel espoir de la
techno belge’ while Tsugi coined her “revelation for 2017”.
