Over the past few years, she has toured the US, Europe, Australia,Asia, and Latin America, and dropped two EPs with frequent collaborator Nick León, while playingeverywhere from Dekmantel to Panorama Bar, Primavera Sound, Horst, and more. To say she has beenbusy is anunderstatement, but it is this relentless forward motion that has positioned her as one of themost exciting selectors of the mid-2020s.
If there’s an imprint that has left its mark on almost every corner of the dance music ecosystem, it isTraTraTrax. Run by DJs Lomalinda, Nyksan, and Verraco, TraTraTrax has been introducing andamplifying the sounds that erupt from the streets and clubs of Sur America.
