After making names for themselves as individuals and becoming recognised within London’s underground clubbing scene, Samantha Blackburn and Chloe Fontaine have embarked on a new empowering journey as a promoter duo.

Byrdz is a night dedicated to dark, deep and sultry rolling beats and basslines, with strictly female spinners. 

DJing has long been a male dominated field but with the addition of these talented ladies to the mix, London now has a new base for fresh female talent of 2012 and beyond, helping to pave the way for other like-minded femmes.

London-born Chloé Fontaine, and Samantha Blackburn, originally from South Africa, created Byrdz back in August 2011 as a platform to showcase and promote female DJs London while adding their expressive, passionate styles and skill on the circuit as solo DJs, both holding residencies at some of London’s most avant- garde and leading-edge parties and also regular slots on local radio stations.

In recent years Samantha and Chloé have become popular names within London’s house music scene, with Chloé’s excellent knowledge of house, from rolling tech and techno to deeper and more soulful sounds, and Sam’s distinctive driving tech and tribal rhythms. Both women have already enjoyed a number of international bookings and Samantha has recently been labelled “one to watch” by Mixmag. Chloé’s productions have been snapped up with releases on two different techno labels this coming May and June. These two women together make a truly desirable fusion.

Samantha and Chloé want to see more women getting up there on the decks, as the scene needs more female emotive influences to add to its repertoire. Byrdz already has a strong, committed following, and is growing rapidly. Summer 2012 will be their first season in Ibiza and they are currently being contacted by people bugging out over the concept and wanting to take the brand to the next level securing international spots for the rest of the year.
