Beats and throat singing: Sámi DJs tap into growing pride in Indigenous identity

Acts such as Article 3 are drawing inspiration from their culture and meeting a big appetite for Indigenous-focused club nights

We both live in maybe the most impractical place if you want to be a successful DJ," laughs Alice Marie Jektevik, one half of Article 3, a Sami female DJ collective. Jektevik, 36, and her collaborator, Petra Laiti, 30, reside in a rural village in the far north-east of Norway.

But living in Sapmi - the region across northern parts of Sweden, Norway, Finland and Russia traditionally lived in by Sami people - has proven to be central to their success, providing the inspiration for much of their work.
