History

[edit]

De Witte was born inGhent, Belgium[5] on 21 July 1992.[1]

Around 2009, she started to explore Ghent'sundergroundnightclub scene, where she was drawn toelectronic music. She started DJing in 2010, mainly playingelectro music;[5] her production work commenced about two years later.[6] Winning aStudio Brussel DJ contest in 2011, she subsequently performed at theTomorrowland festival.[5][6] She adopted the alias Raving George to avoidnegative preconceptions against female DJs,[6][7][8] releasing her debutEP in 2013.[6] Following the release of a string of EPs on Bad Life and Crux Records, her 2015 single "You're Mine", which featuredOscar and the Wolf, became ahit.[5]

In 2015, de Witte dropped her alias and started using her real name.[9] This was accompanied by a change in her music style from previously electro andelectro house towards techno. She cites a set by German techno DJLen Faki that she heard at a festival as the origin of this stylistic change.[10] Her debut EP under her name,Weltschmerz, was released on the same year onTurbo Recordings.[5][8] This was followed by a string of 2017 EPs,[8] as well as 2018'sHeart of Mine andThe Healer EPs.[2][8] de Witte has performed at various notable electronic music events, including Junction 2 Festival,Boiler Room andPrintworks.[6]

In 2019, she launched her own label, KNTXT.[7] Artists such asChris Liebing, Monoloc, or Alignment have released works under KNTXT.[11] In the same year, she was voted the world's best techno DJ at theDJ Awards.[12] Since 2019, she has advanced to one of the most acclaimed DJs in techno, winning notable awards in the industry and earning the nickname "techno queen".[13][14]

On 5 February 2021, de Witte announced via social media her engagement to Italian techno DJ and producer Enrico Sangiuliano.[15] Later that year, the couple released their first joint record: a remix of the 1990 Italian-Belgian trance song "The Age of Love". The remix became a hit, toppingBeatport's 2021 techno bestsellers list and receiving a gold record in 2022 for over 500,000 units sold.[16][17] The couple married in 2022.[18]

In January 2024, de Witte launched the new label Époque, a platform for remixes of iconic tracks from Belgium.[19] On 9 February 2024, de Witte opened a temporary KNTXT Store in Brussels, situated atSquare Sainctelette 4.[20] On 7 February 2025, de Witte played a free set atStadshal, Ghent, in front of 12,500 fans.[21] In 2025, de Witte was named the 9th best DJ in the world byDJ Mag's Top 100 DJs poll, marking the first time in her career she ranked within the top 10.[22]
