Adriana Lopez

The Colombian artist, currently based in Barcelona, brings over 20 years of unwavering dedication to electronic music and club culture. She remains a recognized standard-bearer, celebrated not only for her productions but also for her DJ sets, where she unfolds her broad, rich, and comprehensive vision of techno with vivacity, never conforming to any conventional sound. Known for her raw, hypnotic and driving techno, Adriana has released on labels known to nurture this sound, such as Spanish labels PoleGroup and Semantica, as well as Stroboscopic Artefacts, Modularz, and her label, Grey Report. Adriana embarked on her music career in the late '90s, starting in her hometown of Bogota. During this time, she cut her teeth holding down residencies at prominent clubs like BarC, La Sala, and Cinema, while also showcasing her talent across various cities in her native country. In 2003, she relocated to Barcelona, which opened up a global touring schedule with performances at top clubs and festivals worldwide. With years of experience behind her, Adriana’s deep understanding of techno is evident in her high quality and tasteful selections: mixing records with a technical finesse that has led to appearances at the likes of Berghain and Tresor (Berlin), fabric (London), Concrete and Rex (Paris), Elysia (Basel), Grelle Forelle (Vienna), Lux Fragil (Lisbon), Khidi (Tbilisi), Fabrik (Madrid), Input and Razzmatazz (Barcelona), Basement (New York), Vent (Tokyo), Faust and Vurt (Seoul), Awakenings and Vault Sessions (Netherlands), Stone Techno Festival (Essen), XRDS Festival (Brussels), DGTL Festival (Barcelona, Madrid), Rainbow Serpent Festival (Australia) and many more.
