This girl goes to every disco in her city, mixes musical compositions and turns on the audience. In short, he is engaged in "DJing". And at the same time, she struggles with the prejudice that this is unfeminine work.

At the disco, her name is DJ Angel. In the world - Lena Kuznetsova. Lives in Ruza near Moscow (one club for the whole city). He studies as a historian-jurist at the Istra Pedagogical College. Of his eighteen years, two years "DJ".

“When they see me at the discopult for the first time, they look like an ostrich in headphones,” Lena laughs. - It happens that they look at it for a long time, and then they ask a brilliant question: “Where is the DJ?”. At first it bothered me. Then they began to recognize on the streets. Now I have half a city of acquaintances and a cloud of impressions!

Here, one wonders, is it necessary for a decent girl - to hang at discos at night, entertaining someone, and during the day to walk the streets under the gun of index fingers? "Music is my life. Once I got into it, now I can't quit. It's like a drug: you take a break - and withdrawal begins.

“You always feel the audience,” Lena says. - When everyone likes your music - it's such a thrill!

I looked at the audience, which the Angel "has to feel." Strongly maturing thirteen-year-old girls with their body movements resemble snakes in a frying pan, and make-up - Indians. The boys prop up the walls, squint at the cigarette smoke and rummage around with a drunken look.

“Moscow and provincial audiences are very different,” Lena comments. - There are a lot of young people in the capital, they come to the club to hang out, relax. Accepts progressive club music. And with us ... I have nothing against pop music! But it's better to listen to it on TV. When, after a trance composition, they ask to play Serdyuchka, all the desire to play disappears. It is very difficult to work with such an audience.

— Do you put Serduchka?

- Of course not! I can refuse. Although sometimes it even comes to threats: if, they say, you don’t bet right now, then you won’t get out of here. Ponies are cheap. A DJ should never depend on the audience. In a normal disco the opposite is true. Who plays - he orders the music.
