In the labyrinth of electronic music, some stars rise with an irresistible allure, casting their luminous glow upon the dance floors they command. One such celestial entity is LUNA, a Colombian-born DJ whose journey has been as diverse and captivating as her beats. From the lush landscapes of Aotearoa to the pulsating heart of Naarm/Melbourne’s electronic scene, LUNA’s trajectory has been nothing short of mesmerising.
Born amidst the rhythmic tapestry of Colombia, LUNA’s musical voyage began in the picturesque landscapes of Aotearoa, New Zealand. It was here that she first dipped her toes into the swirling currents of the electronic music scene, immersing herself in its vibrant culture and eclectic beats. From underground raves to moonlit sets under the open sky, LUNA embraced every facet of Kiwi rave culture, drawing inspiration from its energy and camaraderie.
Aotearoa Adventures
In New Zealand, LUNA’s journey unfolded amidst a backdrop of lush forests, rolling hills, and crystal-clear lakes. She explored the depths of the Kiwi rave culture, finding herself drawn to underground parties and warehouse events pulsating with life and creativity. Collaborations with local artists fuelled her passion, while outdoor festivals and bush jams became her playground for sonic exploration. And under the watchful gaze of the moon, LUNA spun her tracks, weaving her magic into the fabric of New Zealand’s electronic landscape.
Melbourne Marvels
But it was in Naarm/Melbourne, the beating heart of Australia’s electronic music scene, that LUNA truly found her rhythm. Here, amidst the city’s eclectic music scene and lunar nights, she carved her niche, infusing her sets with the spirit of adventure and the warmth of the local community. From iconic venues like Revolver Upstairs to hidden laneway cafes, LUNA’s musical odyssey took her on a whirlwind tour of Melbourne’s sonic tapestry.
Inspiration and Collaboration
Collaborations with local DJs and producers enriched her sound, while late-night coffee runs provided solace amidst the city’s nocturnal buzz. Luna Park Melbourne and St. Kilda Beach became her sanctuaries, offering moments of respite and inspiration amidst her busy DJ schedule. And as the sun set over Port Phillip Bay, LUNA found solace in the salty breeze and the sound of crashing waves, her thoughts drifting to the next moonlit set awaiting her.
A Musical Voyage
As LUNA prepares to take her sound worldwide, her journey from Aotearoa to Naarm serves as a testament to the transformative power of music. With upcoming gigs at Revs (Melbourne/Naarm, 3 March 2023) and The Grace Darling (Melbourne/Naarm, 8 March 2023), her celestial beats are set to captivate audiences once more, leaving an indelible mark on the dance floors she commands.
