From “helping with the drinks and stuff” at illegal raves in Marburg, Germany, to playing alongside DJ Stingray at RSO.aBERLIN, she’s had an impressive trajectory. oday, DJ MELL G champions electro, although the shift in genre remains an evolving process. Born in Oldenburg, she moved to Marburg to study law and joined a local trap music collective, heading up bookings for their DIY parties. Keen to work in the music industry, specifically artist management, she quit her law degree. As her popularity kept growing in Germany, DJ MELL G played her first official show in OXI, Berlin. Intrigued by electro and artists like DJ Stingray and The Exaltics, she leaned into a sound palette where she felt her true self. Today, she produces and mixes electro with occasional splashes of techno and breakbeat. Her first solo LP “ISSUES” signifies her most personal project yet, affirming her status as a considered producer who is keen to nurture dialogue around mental health in the music industry.
