I actually really like this product so I'm sharing here as I enter their little contest. As you can imagine, I've been using earplugs for decades, even the custom molded ones, and these are the first that actually and truly don't muffle the sound. It's not the highest level of protection at 19dB, but for me the clarity of sound means I will really use them consistently, which is key.

Many thanks to AMW, DJ IVON, and friends for another fun night of techno at the studio!
Thanks again to DJ Ivon at Amsterdam's Most Wanted for the chance to play at Allegro beats!
Really enjoyed a break from techno for a beautiful psy trance party on the beach last night. Discovered @djeye_riz, a fantastic artist who really made the night special. Thanks to @loekibouwman for the clip!
Heading off to vacation in France, with lovely memories of the last gig at UP. Thanks @costynvd for the happy video! See you all for more techno in September - I'll play with @technodj__ivon at Amsterdam's Most Wanted on September 27. 💃🕺🖤
Fun times at Club Up with so many friendly faces! 🫶
Last time playing at Club UP, and it was fun! Thanks to @eastcollective_amsterdam for the opportunity and for all the friendly faces who showed up to dance. 🖤
Truxx shared their deep and dark vibe early at NoChill too. Great new discovery!

Dj Ivon doing her techno thing early at the NoChill Rave this past weekend. #djane #technomusic #technobreakfast
Great fun playing techno for breakfast for the NoChill Rave under a bridge in Amsterdam! I finally got to meet Ivon from AMW, and Truxx was a really great B2B.
I think the party managed to go on until midnight or so.
Looking forward to my debut at the Bas[s]ment on Friday, May 31st, with several awesome DJanes. The place is designed for streaming and for a small audience, so I hope to see you there either in person or online!
What a great month ahead with EAST at UP - I hope to see you there myself on April 18! 💃🕺🖤
Juliette Siegfried aka Zelda started DJing vinyl in 1998, a late newcomer to the scene at age 31. Within two years, she was playing at iconic events in and near the Washington DC, Virginia and Maryland area such as Buzz @ Nation and The Edge in Southeast DC, Family Affair in OH, and the infamous Skylab in Ocean City, MD. Zelda spun progressive trance until 1999, when, after a first visit to a show by Richie Hawtin, she changed permanently to spinning techno.
Zelda established one of the first ever DJ schools in the nation, Metatrack studios, in Washington DC in 2000. Her experienced DJ friends comprised the staff and offered courses in DJing and music production, as well as private studio rentals for mixtape recording and practicing. When she and her husband decided to move to Europe in 2003, Metatrack studios was closed and they began a new chapter of family, parenting and business ownership. Between 2003 and 2005, Zelda DJed in Madrid with a weekly local bar residency and a fun “rock star” gig in a club in Vigo, Spain.
In 2010 Zelda and her family moved to the Netherlands, where DJing took a back seat to the rest of life. She became a Techno Tour Guide for Amsterdam Techno Lovers and Techno Travelers, Meetup groups with a combined membership of 2300. In small groups, they explore local and international events and welcome newcomers to the techno scene.
However, Zelda never lost the desire to DJ. Once her medical translation business was fully established and her daughter more independent, she began sharing her own mixes again, via Soundcloud, now on a digital setup. Her blend of melodic, deep and driving techno is catching on, and in March of 2018 Zelda had her first successful “re-entry” gig in Belgium. Zelda was also one of the winners of the Magistrat DJ Contest in The Hague, and after that gig she was asked to return - a good sign. Zelda is currently exploring additional opportunities in Amsterdam and beyond.
