One afternoon, while perusing Soundcloud, I serendipitously happened across Jet Airess, a DJ and producer from Borneo. More specifically, she’s from Sarawak, one of two Malaysian states that share the island with five Indonesian provinces and the nation of Brunei.

Her page’s description articulately self-identifies the genre: “Harmonics and Hardness… T

Sometimes I wore pajama pants underneath the leisure pants to stay warm. I was too tall for myself. My eyebrows were dark and intense. I didn’t know when to smile. These qualities were fodder for ridicule from children and adults alike. I was told I looked less like a girl than my friends did. I was told I looked dirty.
WOMYN YOU SHOULD KNOW: Aerienne Russell
I met up with womyn warriror Aerienne Russell, known to LA locals as folksy sweetheart Kitchen Hips and a co-creator of feminist DIY-space Gal Palace. She shares with me what it's like being a solo-female artist living and performing in LA and running the powerful DIY space and community that she has created alongside her roommates in her own living room. --Lauren Lauren Moon: Hi Aerienne, thanks so much for joining me! How's your day been so far? Aerienne Russell: Good! I wo
