what it means to be a woman for you?

FREDERIKA:
As a woman, I like to assume myself as I am, with my faults and my qualities, but the most important thing for me is to be considered as the equal of the man. And even if my sisters have been fighting for the equality of women for years, there is still a divide and inequalities and it is a daily fight to fight against the ideas born from patriarchy. 

On the electronic scene, women are much less present than men and have often been very sexualized. Fortunately the thinking is starting to change, and more and more festivals, labels,... are trying to be fair and book as many women as men.

What I think is most important in this field is to be considered as an artist and to be recognized for my talent.

Being a woman is to trust our intuition, listen to our heart, be playful with life, be inspired by other women and inspire them in return, being conscious of our power & create our path in an elegant and artistic way.
Women are stronger when they get together, let's collaborate & join our power!

AUDAE:
Being a woman is a constant learning process for me. It's learning to know yourself, embracing your sensitivity, your emotions, your sensuality in order to transform it into strength and creative energy. It is learning to find the inner goddess, breaking the conscious and unconscious patterns inherited from our family, friends, and society.
It means going beyond the limits we set ourselves and daring to lift ever further, ever crazier. To be a woman is for me to learn to create, to live with other women and to work and grow rich together, to learn to live amongst men and other humans and living and non-living beings, to be able to connect with what is surrounded with: nature, animals, elements, spirits and other creatures..

More than being a woman, is learning to be aligned as a being, with her mind and her body. It is realizing your path and expressing your truth.

MARLIBLUE & SOFYAH:

To us, being a woman means embracing the traits of womanhood like sensitivity, empathy and intuition and using them as perks when it comes to creating our life designs and connecting with other people. At the same time, we are aware of how these traits may result in women being considered as the ‚weaker gender‘ with all underlying implications for the role that is assigned to them in our society. Let’s aspire to a future where the wonderful attributes of womanhood are decoupled of expectations or predetermined life paths, but rather contribute to self-expression, empowerment and finally a benefit for the coexistence of all human beings on this planet.

INKE:

To me being a woman means embracing the cyclicity of everything that is and knowing that there is a space for all seasons. One cannot exist without the other. 

Being a woman means holding space for my feminine qualities like receptivity, sensitivity, self-awareness, and vulnerability.  It means allowing my intuitive, generous self to come through and connecting to my creativity. Being a woman means allowing my feminine energy to flow in balance with my masculine one. It means embracing those qualities not only within myself but within the men and women around me, holding this space not only for myself, but for the people around me. Being a woman means connection. Connection to other women, all living beings, mother nature and the universe.

Being a woman also means claiming ownership over my body and my identity as a woman in a modern world on a path that was carved by our ancestors. It means taking ownership of my rights and acknowledging that so many of the choices and opportunities that present themselves to me as a woman today are credited to the strong and powerful women that walked before me. Acknowledging this gives me the strength to be bold and speak up, to break the patterns of a patriarchal world and conventional ideas of gender, and to let my self shine and express my truths.

I am very grateful to be surrounded by many strong, inspiring and powerful women in my life right now and so many men who are connecting to their feminine qualities, bestowing us with a great source of balance and love."

Ser mujer es reconocer la capacidad para lograr lo que se nos proponga 
Combinar la visión y la capacidad de ejecutar muchas cosas al mismo tiempo, la capacidad de no darse por vencida y ver la resiliencia como la mejor fuente de oportunidades. 
Ser mujer es el símbolo de poder, es pelear por nuestros derechos, es el poder expresarse desde los sentimientos, poder dar vida y tener la libertad y la fuerza de reconocer qué es lo mejor para nosotras.
Ser mujer es ser luchadora y valiente. Es no darse por vencida. Es reconocer nuestro interior como nuestra principal fortaleza.
Es estar llena de coraje, amor y belleza.

¿Qué significa ser mujer para ti?

BARDA:
"Para mi ser mujer significa sororidad y empatía. Y muchas veces trabajar mucho para ser escuchada en un mundo en donde los proyectos son, en su mayoría, integrados por hombres. Significa también hacer caso a la sensibilidad y vulnerabilidad que me despierta aquello que me inspira, ya sea una obra de arte o un reclamo en una marcha. Y, por último, ser abierta a deconstruirme, estética, política y emocionalmente."

BARBARELLA:
Beeing a woman first means to be a person, a human being that loves, understands and supports. It means to be strong and vulnerable at the same time. Being a woman is a part of my identity which sometimes is more and sometimes less important. From time to time it means to struggle a bit harder to be heard and to be treated equally, although knowing that I'm in a very privileged situation in comparison to lots of other women in the world.

For me, being a woman means self-empowerment and collective power development out of the need to increase the visibility of women and to stand up together for more appreciation. The enormous energy that arises from this has so mich power that it can work wonders!

Being a woman meant and still means to be a warrior for change in a man's world. Many admirable female pioneers have paved the way for the women of today, who enjoy new rights and liberties. But the journey is not over. Men and women together need to fight for a gender equal world.

"I could never say how infinite I feel as a woman being. I daily embrace myself in order to become everything I ever wanted to be and in this path I've learned that there ain't nothing more powerful than a woman who loves herself and who understands other women, other black woman, other transgender woman. We live in a daily fight and we will take our conqueurs with our teeth in case it's needed, but we will never stop fighting against patriarchal structures. 

Hold on cause we are coming..."

CHRYSTAL CHRIS:
Being a woman means to me to detach from stereotypes of what it means to be a woman.
Being a female human means to me the true articulation of my thoughts, feelings and needs to people around me as well as empathy for their perspectives.
Being a human means to me the emancipation and liberation from destructive thought patterns and negative projections of others. 
Being a collective human means to me the internalisation of matriarchal values: 
- nurturing of the natural, social and cultural life
- mutual respect & empowerment
- power from within
- strong community bonds as healthy & wise support system 
- “I don’t see it as a society that oppresses men; more a society that values instinct as much as intellect, receptivity as much as assertiveness, collaboration as much as individualism and empathy as much as objectivity.”

SAHRA BASS:
Being a woman means claiming ownership over my body and my identity, advocating for equal rights for everyone. The struggle for equality belongs to no single feminist but to the collective effort of all who care about human rights.Womanhood is not simply a set of body parts and functions but so much more complex. A lot of the times it means being vulnerable and strong at the same time and it implies empowerment of both myself and other women. It also means the empowerment of breaking free and of refusing to be subject to common stereotypes.

While letting myself in for the “task” to create a mix for a female-only podcast series and contemplating on how this piece of music could possibly carry my feelings to the outside, I felt a strong desire of not starting off merely with my soft and meek, some may say “feminine”, side but to deliver the sense of harshness and ruggedness that I perceived in that very moment. To show that part of me that doesn’t care to be slick. To break expectations and musical anticipations of me as a woman and of me as a female artist. This to me felt inevitable in order to eventually find peace in the more fragile, subtle harmonic comfort zone I am often to be found in - because as a woman I am willing to unite either, vulnerability AND resilience. Because “often our meekness is misconceived as weakness (quote taken from my spoken word intro “What’s in a Woman” by Izzy Eze & Thembe Mvula).

For me, being a woman is a gift. A gift from the universe that my mom and dad taught me it needs to be nurtured and cherished every day wherever I may be. I love being a woman, wearing lipstick, painting my nails pink and I am here to continue supporting the women's movement in any form that I can. Seeing that the movement has been alive and kicking for a very long time now, I want to thank all the sisters who have advocated for equality and who have shown us to be resilient throughout the years. This is a work in progress and I am hopeful that we can continue changing the system because so much is evolving rapidly, and there is a flexibility to this era that feels very exciting to me.

La Femme Mystifiée nace como respuesta a “el malestar que no tiene nombre”. Convirtiéndose en un espacio para la desmitificación de la mujer y sus roles dentro de la sociedad.

Como sello discográfico queremos que la mujer tome un papel protagónico y ejerza de guía en este lúcido trayecto hacia la autonomía. A través del sonido y la mística, buscamos comunicar el pensamiento y sentir femenino ante un entorno que pretende devorarla (Desaparecerla).

La Femme Mystifiée was born in response to "the problem that has no name." Becoming a space for the demystification of women and their roles within society.

As a record label, we want women to take a leading role and act as a guide in this lucid journey towards autonomy. Through the sound and mysticism, we pretend to communicate the female thought and feel in an environment that intends to devour her. (Disappear her)
