This year, that music took on a certain trance element, with her more recent ‘Asura’ EP being lit up by psychedelic influences that take her back to her roots.
“Although the music will always be the main focus, it doesn’t have to be the only focus.” She says she gets as creative as possible with them and sees no real limits as to what can be done. “Obviously, I couldn’t go on tours, and didn’t have so many shows, so it was really nice to stretch my arms and see what other things I could get involved with.” At this point, the Belgian shouts out the behind-the-scenes team who help bring her ideas to life. “I think this year was a good opportunity to try and explore other things,” Charlotte says with a smile over Zoom.
She also briefly opened up the label for demo submissions as part of her unspoken mission to diversify techno. This year alone there have been two new solo EPs on the label, a chart-topping remix with Enrico Sangiuliano, a historic live stream from the Italian Formula 1 race track Autodromo Internazionale del Mugello (where she also got to drive around in a Ferrari), various themed playlist hook-ups with Apple Music, and even a boutique clothing range in collaboration with Belgian activewear brand 42I54.
Rather than revelling in time off during the pandemic, though, she kept on working to expand and evolve her KNTXT empire. Rising star DJ/producer of 2021: “Indira Paganotto.”Ĭharlotte de Witte is one of the most recognisable techno DJs on the planet, and in ordinary times plays hundreds of gigs a year. Best known for: “Tomorrowland 2018 Main Stage/New Form live streams in lockdown.”
