Hello everyone and welcome! You are in tune to our exclusive podcast, the weekly mission where Il Modo scours Planet Progressive in search of those hidden DJ mixes. Sit back and chill, let's see where our search takes us .... 

We are back in the mix with a crowd favourite this week, and it's an absolute pleasure to have her back. Her style and track selection make it an easy choice for DJ mixes, never failing to produce a set that rocks every time, please make some noise for Daria Fomina!

Daria Fomina was born near Moscow. She graduated from music school as a teenager in piano class and soon after she found her musical inspiration in electronic music. The people who shaped her musical taste in this new found passion were DJs and bands such as Robert Miles, Radiohead, Enigma, Massive Attack, Prodigy, André Tanneberger, Tiësto, Markus Schulz, Ferry Corsten, Armin Van Buuren, Paul Oakenfold, John Digweed, Sasha, Deep Dish, Pole Folder, Hernan Cattaneo, Nick Warren, Sébastien Léger, Guy J and others. 

In the beginning of her career Daria played on several radio stations in different geographical locations and has since hosted several exclusive podcasts. At the moment, Daria is a resident of Frisky Radio (US), hosting a two-hour podcast where she invites unique, talented DJs and music producers on her show Oxygen,  and on DI.FM Progressive Channel (US), Subcode Radio (UK) and DNA Radio FM (AR) where she hosts her one-hour show Purple Sky. Daria has also played at Amsterdam Dance Events, Burning Man Project, Hungary and other dance venues in Moscow and Russian cities. 

On April 21, 2021, her first remix on  DROID9 was released, and it was quite successful. It got into the ratings of Release Promo's - Hype Chart Essentials Week 16 on Beatport, and also stayed in the top 100 Progressive House Releases for an extended period.
 
She was the curator of theLIA Series project, which Amber Long founded in December 2021. Daria was tasked with inviting female DJs and organising podcasts for female musical artists from all over the world to participate in the project, which involved over 30 women at its peak.

From April 2024 to the present, Daria has been a resident at the Moscow City Space Bar & Restaurant, which is located on the 34th floor in Swissotel Krasnye Holmy . You can enjoy a magnificent view of the center of Moscow and its attractions to the beautiful melodies of organic and progressive house, which she plays every week.

Daria also occasionally participates as a guest DJ on some online radio stations where she is often a guest in many projects of other musicians and DJs from all over the world.

Her sounds in her DJ mixes are filled with deep and melodic progressive house combined with melodic techno, tech house, deep house, organic house and adding different shades of electronic music.
