Saffron and Team love are delighted to present a new three-part series of online workshops designed to demystify pathways into the festival scene for artists, DJs and aspiring industry professionals.
WORKSHOP 2: WARMUP DJ TO HEADLINE SLOT W/ DANIELLE
In the second part of Saffron x Team Love’s Festival Field Guide, Danielle shares the journey of her career so far. In this 90-minute online session, she’ll outline the steps that took her from interning at a record shop to playing major festival slots at Glastonbury, Dekmantel Selectors, Love International, and more. She will then guide the group through a visioning exercise to help you define your own path in the industry. The session will conclude with a relaxed discussion and Q&A – so join us live, if you can, for the full experience.
ABOUT DANIELLE
Danielle’s DJing has touched upon vital events, venues and locations around the world, from touring the US, Australia and Asia alongside playing flagship festivals like Glastonbury, Dekmantel Selectors, Love International, and Draaimolen to clubs like DC10, Fabric, Panorama Bar and De School. She has also been a resident at Leftbank in Tbilisi since 2022. In tandem, her skills have been recognised by key publications, including Mixmag & DJ Mag (she was nominated as the best breakthrough DJ in 2020) and her live set at Organik in Taiwan was voted as one of the top 10 mixes of 2023 by Resident Advisor. Beyond her DJ work, she runs Soft Raw, a label & party series founded in 2022. Danielle also takes the time to impart her experience and knowledge to the next generation via her classes with Saffron’s Mix Nights – an initiative she helped set up almost 10 years ago to encourage women and non-binary people to explore the art of DJing

GENDER POLICY
The gender imbalance in the music technology industry is well-recognised. While we are absolutely not ‘anti-men’, we see that a shorter-term solution is to provide fellowship and learning environments that are not dominated by the cisgender male perspective. Therefore, these workshops are intended for women, non-binary, trans and gender non-conforming people to attend. While we do not ban cisgender men from attending, we hope that they will respect that this event is not intended for them.
