DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ

DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ (abbreviated DJSTTDJ) is a pseudonymous London-based electronic producer. Her name is a reference to the television sitcom Sabrina the Teenage Witch, inspired by a comment on YouTube. She released her debut album, Makin' Magick, in 2017. Her main musical influences include plunderphonics musicians and the 2010s UK outsider house scene. DJ Sabrina collaborated with her sibling Salem on Makin' Magick, which led to Salem being credited as a member of a duo with Sabrina by some media outlets. "[T]he bio has always mentioned Sabrina and Salem, but I like the idea of it being a mystery," the artist has stated. DJ Sabrina started making house music in 2014, influenced by the release of Caustic Window by Aphex Twin. She was first exposed to the UK outsider house scene from DJ Seinfeld in 2016 through the music blog aggregator Hype Machine. DJ Sabrina has cited albums such as the Avalanches' Since I Left You and Daft Punk's Homework as major influences. Starting with Enchanted, she began to incorporate elements of acid house into her music. DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ often samples music and television shows from the late 1980s to the early 2000s. DJ Sabrina has stated that her album cover arts are inspired by pixel art of '90s video games. DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ debuted in 2017 with the release of a two-hour-long album, Makin' Magick. Three more albums followed in 2018 and 2019. In 2020, she released Charmed, a three-hour-long album that became "an underground pandemic hit". In April 2021, she released the single "Try Not to Be Afraid" in collaboration with musicians Delilah Brao, Luke Markinson, and Anyela Gómez, which was described as "highly nostalgic". DJ Sabrina the Teenage DJ since released six further albums from 2021 to 2024. In addition to her albums and singles, she also produces mixtapes, which she call "combinisions", a portmanteau of "combinational composition".
