KITTENS （Lauren Abedini）是一名无畏的流派音乐人，在洛杉矶的club总是被称为“新生代DJ”。但是在与Kid Cudi一起巡演并与Usher合作之后，显然易见她已经走到了顶峰。
她17岁时经常去Low End Theory（一个实验性的嘻哈和电子俱乐部）。那也是 Flying Lotus开始接触电子音乐的地方，“Gaslamp Killer”当时是那儿的常驻DJ。那是一个制作人和DJ们经常聚在一起的地方——J Dilla era。那里没有太多女孩子，所以这让Kittens感到很有趣。所以她开始跟着那些人学习DJ，还跟他们买了唱机转盘和混音器。一开始她觉得很困难，总是跟不上节奏，但好在她的DJ导师们都给予了她很大帮助。
Lauren Abedini—or DJ: KITTENS—is a fearless genre-splicer who has regularly been referred to in the Los Angeles club scene as a “DJ on the rise.” But after touring with Kid Cudi and working with Usher, it’s clear to us that she’s already worked her way to the top.
“When I was 17 I started going to Low End Theory [an experimental hip-hop and electronic club night] in Lincoln Heights. That’s where Flying Lotus got his start and The Gaslamp Killer was a resident DJ. It was a place for producers and DJs to play weird shit in the post—J Dilla era. There weren’t that many girls, which was interesting to me. ”
“打碟也好，站在舞台上又或者幕后制作，在这些男人主导的地盘里，我只想为女人创作一些空间。”
在这个充满男性的领域当中，对于一个女孩还是有些恐惧去学习，产生有信心，真正当作一个职业去做。比如，女孩们在人前时常会有些紧张，不想让自己感觉很尴尬。所以她建立了仅限女性DJ的工作室，由女性来教授DJ课程，只有女孩在房间里，可以谈论作为一个女人在行业里面所要面对的事情，时常分享一些她的经验和技巧。 她认为做好一张mixtape最重要的是把它看成是一个故事。你想要整体的主题是什么？确保你有介绍，建立，高潮，结论。
“I know the struggles of the industry as a girl and that DJing is mainly considered a masculine trait. It’s a little bit intimidating to learn, and to feel confident and really chase it. The way men and women generally learn is different. [For example] girls will get psyched out and not want to embarrass themselves in front of a guy. So I figured it would be cool to have a space that was super female-friendly and open, with girls teaching them and only girls in the room. We can talk about the struggles of navigating the industry as a woman, the things you’re going to face that guys aren’t going to face. I just wanted to share my experience and my technical tips and tricks. ”

作为一个女DJ及音乐制作人，想要在竞争如此强烈的电音圈内获得一席之地？听起来似乎充满挑战，而年轻有天赋的Kittens恰好全占了！原名Lauren Abedini的Kittens，以她丰富的乐理知识及过去作为舞者的实战经验，在音色低沉的节拍、强劲的说唱节奏和清脆的鼓点中找到了平衡。
It takes an equal part talent, finesse, sass, and balls for a woman to get the right kind of attention in the ever-competitive industry of young DJs and producers...Kittens has just that. With her vast knowledge of music and past as a dancer, Kittens (born Lauren Abedini) has been able to find a balance between low grinding electronic beats, heavy rap, and future beat music which has earned the support of some of the most influential artists of our time.
