When Do Androids Dance asked me to write an article on sexism in EDM, I didn’t immediately say yes. It seemed too expected, too topical. Women’s role in dance music is on the tip of everyone’s tongues and it’s not just inner circle blogs – everyone from The Huffington Post to the Village Voice has written about it recently.

Dani Deahl's clearly gotten in the good graces of Diplo, though you would think otherwise from her new single, "Diplo Hates You."
