Charlotte De Witte
Belgium's Charlotte de Witte produces dark, driving techno that focuses on stark, pounding rhythms, occasionally incorporating shreds of haunting melodies or vocals. Following buzz for her early electro-house work, de Witte gained wider attention developing her darker, more atmospheric style on EPs such as 2018's The Healer. She also launched her own KNTXT label, on which she has released more EPs and singles, including 2022's Universal Consciousness and 2023's "High Street."
Born in Ghent, de Witte first started to DJ in 2010, when she was 17. She initially adopted the pseudonym Raving George so that people would concentrate on her DJ skills rather than her gender. Initially, she played electro-house and EDM, and got her first big break by winning a Studio Brussel DJ contest and spinning at the Tomorrowland festival in 2011. She returned to the festival several times and became a resident DJ at Studio Brussel, in addition to performing at other festivals such as I Love Techno and Pukkelpop. She began producing tracks as Raving George in 2013, releasing EPs on Bad Life and Crux Records before scoring a hit with the 2015 single "You're Mine," which featured Oscar and the Wolf (Belgian vocalist Max Colombie).
By 2015, de Witte's sound had switched to a darker, more straightforward brand of techno. She decided to drop her pseudonym and go by her real name, as she had fully established her career and felt no need to hide behind a misleading pseudonym. Her Weltschmerz EP was issued by Tiga's Turbo label at the end of 2015, and additional releases soon appeared on imprints like Amazone Records, Mary Go Wild Black, and NovaMute. She maintained a residency at the Brussels club Fuse, and became an in-demand DJ across the globe. De Witte appeared on the cover of DJ Mag in 2017, and recorded an Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1 in 2018, shortly before the release of her second NovaMute EP, The Healer.
Over the next few years, de Witte continued a slow drip of EP releases, all maintaining her dark rhythms and tendencies toward vocal samples. In 2019, she issued the EPs Pressure and Selected, and crafted an ominous remix for Eats Everything's track "Space Raiders." That year, she also founded her own KNTXT label. More EP releases followed, including 2020's Vision and Return to Nowhere, and 2021's Formula and Asura. Universal Consciousness and Apollo appeared in 2022. She collaborated with Enrico Sangiuliano for 2023's Reflection EP and released the solo single "High Street."
