Real Girl is the DJ moniker of Minneapolis based artist Josie Simon. Real Girl’s sets are reflective of the love they have for dance floors where queer and trans friends can be their whole selves and lose themselves in the music together, and she’ll play just about anything to make sure the dancers are having a blast. This means house, techno, speed garage, trance, hip-hop, hyperpop; anything can happen when the stars align. You can catch Real Girl’s radio show Beat Conduit every first Friday of the month on Verge.fm!

Rave Scout #012: REAL GIRL (INDEPENDENT, OH)

Midwest-raised, Ohio-based multimedia artist, Real Girl, emplaned her DJ journey spinning the decks at college house parties and events in the vicinity of the campus of Oberlin. Real Girl's aphorism to her musical artistry is to "play the right thing at the right time." In this mix, Real Girl ramps up the tempo and takes us on an intergalactic voyage sprinkled with electrifying cookie crumbs of her frenetic energy and unpredictable, versatile sounds.
