An expected announcement at the peak of techno
Amelie Lens, an undisputed figure of the international techno scene and founder of the Lenske label, has announced through her official channels that she is pregnant with her second daughter. The news, communicated to her followers through a direct post on her social media, places the birth for the winter season of this year. The original message, shared with great enthusiasm, confirms the sweet moment the family is going through.
I am pregnant with my second daughter. We are very happy and Kiki is impatient to meet her little sister this winter.
— Amelie Lens
This announcement marks a new personal chapter for the Belgian artist and her husband, fellow DJ and producer Sam Deliaert, known artistically as Farrago. The couple already welcomed their first daughter, Kiki, on December 14, 2023. Since then, both have balanced the demanding life of world tours and studio work with parenting, proving that family reconciliation is possible at the highest levels of the electronic industry.
Resilience and transparency in the face of adversity
The current pregnancy represents a moment of deep joy that comes after a stage marked by public vulnerability. In August 2025, Lens shared a highly personal testimony in which she revealed having suffered two miscarriages, one prior to the birth of Kiki and another more recent one during that summer. On that occasion, the producer recounted how she faced high-level performances—including a demanding set in Delhi—while dealing with clinical loss and silent grief.
The decision to make that experience public broke a historical taboo within the clubbing and dance music ecosystem. Lens made visible the emotional and physical burden that many women in the industry endure, facing relentless tour schedules, transoceanic flights, and performances in the early hours of the morning.
Miscarriage is an invisible grief. Often there is no why, it is just nature making a decision. Silence makes it even harder.

Her courage in verbalizing this reality generated a wave of unprecedented support from professional colleagues and fans, consolidating her figure not only as a musical reference at high BPMs, but also as a human and empathetic voice.
The impact of motherhood on the rhythm of the industry
Amelie Lens's life evolution highlights a paradigm shift in contemporary electronic music. Historically, the demands of the festival and nightclub circuit have posed a monumental challenge for artists who wished to start a family. However, the Belgian has maintained her status as a headliner at events of the magnitude of Tomorrowland or Awakenings, adapting her logistics and prioritizing health during pregnancies.
During her first pregnancy in 2023, Lens continued performing until advanced stages, adjusting the monitoring in the booth to protect the baby's hearing. This same work ethic and passion for techno seems to remain intact today, although the artist now has the support of a structured team that allows her to manage her 'Exhale' party residency and her record releases with greater flexibility.
In the absence of official confirmation regarding possible temporary modifications to her performance schedule for the end of the year, the global community has responded to the announcement with thousands of congratulatory messages. The imminent arrival of this new member to the Deliaert-Lens family reaffirms that professional success and personal development can coexist harmoniously in the elite of electronic music.
