KONCEPT Podcast: 030 - MERLINA

Merlina DJ/Producer, originally from Buenos Aires, Argentina, has forged an outstanding career in the music scene. Her initial forays into music date back to 2019, when she became involved in the production of events within the realm of underground techno.

In 2021, Merlina took a decisive step by starting her career as a DJ and music producer at the prestigious Arjaus academy, located in Buenos Aires. Her commitment to artistic excellence has led her to continue honing her craft, incorporating distinct hypnotic sounds and groove rhythms into her productions to date.

The year 2022 marked a milestone in her career, as she founded Ørnament, an event production company and collective of women artists based in Buenos Aires. This project reflects her dedication to promoting the female presence in the local music scene.

Merlina has left a significant mark on the Buenos Aires night scene, participating in various booths and performing in renowned clubs both in the city and in the interior of the country, including southern Argentina. His music has also transcended borders, reaching international audiences in Uruguay, Paraguay and Spain.

Currently, Merlina is part of the exclusive roster of MBA, a national artist agency that recognizes and supports her exceptional talent. Her continued commitment to sonic innovation and the promotion of diversity in music positions her as a leading figure in the contemporary electronic scene.
