Invocation

Art historician, vinyl lover and synthesist Maria Pandiello, started at a young age as a jazz music journalist and became a regular DJ in the nightlife of northern Spain. Pandiello moved to Barcelona where she started her own radio program focusing on spiritual and free jazz. She then became a resident DJ at several nightclubs and festivals in Lisbon, Portugal, and joined Jacco Gardner on tour as an analog synthesist. Settling in Antwerp, she co-founded “Nuova Materia”, an electronic record label focused on the occult. Blending many sounds and aesthetics, from soul, proto-disco and leftfield to progressive and organic percussion, her intention as a DJ has always remained the same: turning the physical dancefloor experience into an intense collective catharsis.
