NEURODIVERGENCE AS A SUPER- POWER
BIIANCO also opened up about being neurodivergent, and how their ADHD has both helped and challenged them throughout their career. They referred to it as something of a superpower, especially when it comes to the ability to hyperfocus in the studio or during re- hearsals. But they were also very open about the need to manage it carefully to avoid burnout.
“During a physically difficult moment, we tend to shut off our emotions and just keep going,” they explained.
“There’s not much space to mourn in that moment, so the pain comes later when the moment has passed, or we’re alone.”
This part of the conversation hit hard. BIIANCO has had to learn how to balance their physical and emo- tional needs while navigating the music industry—and they have been doing it with grace, even when things get tough. It’s a message that resonated with me and, I think, with so many others who deal with challenges like these in a high-energy environment like the music world.
LOOKING FORWARD
By the end of our conversation, I was completely in awe of how BIIANCO balances its technical skills with their emotional
intelligence and advocacy for inclusion.
They are not just an artist making tracks or playing DJ sets—they’re someone actively shaping the future of electronic music to be more inclusive, thoughtful, and innovative.
Their parting words stayed with me: “The first step is for people to care.”
It’s a simple yet powerful message that applies to so much more than just the music scene. If we all cared a little more about the people around us and what they need to fully participate, we’d be creating a much richer, more diverse, and more connected world.
BIIANCO’s journey reminds us that music has the power to bring us together—but only if we’re willing to make space for everyone to join the party.
BIIANCO plays Techno Without Borders & Mixmag NL party at THE OTHER SIDE on Wednesday 16th Octo- ber alongside Ben Klock, Victor Ruiz and more. They’re running a Masterclass at 12:15 on playback rigs and live performances on Thursday 17th at ADE Lab.
BIIANCO’s single ‘Get You Out’ is out now on Ultra Records.
