@gurusound : "This is a present from a small distant world, a token of our sounds, our science, our images, our music, our thoughts and our feelings"

From São Paulo. Living in Istanbul. 

"Sun soaked rhythms and a hypnotic groove.

Hailing from São Paulo, a city pulsing with a thousand vibrations, Ana Flávia has spent over two decades igniting dancefloors across Brazil and beyond. A pioneer among Brazil’s female DJs, she weaves an intricate sonic tapestry of 80s new wave, house, disco, alternative city pop, and tropical twists. Her musical signature? A bold blend of contrasts, seamlessly mixing forgotten classics with contemporary gems.

Since relocating to Istanbul, Ana Flávia has immersed herself in the city's vibrant music culture, joining Saye Kolektif’s curatorial team and the Dans Agogo collective. Her 2024 journey led her through the Balkans—Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina—before setting Berlin and Poland’s Summer Contrast Festival alight. A cosmopolitan trajectory that mirrors her artistry: an interwoven soundscape where Brazilian beats dance with Eurasian and Eastern European influences.

Across Latin America, her name is synonymous with sonic innovation: De Polainas Collective, CIO, House of Divas, Yogurtaban—all projects infused with her unique flair. From legendary club residencies (Hell’s Club, Lov.E, Vegas, D-Edge) to major festival stages like Dekmantel, Gop Tun, O.NDA, and Voodohop, Ana Flávia’s impact is undeniable. A Red Bull Music Academy alum in Rome, she has also performed at Sónar and in countries including Italy, Switzerland, Germany, and Czechia. The result? An artist at the crossroads of continents, where every set becomes a story to dance to."
