DINA shines in Mixmag's The Mix 109
Berlin-based producer DINA has taken center stage in episode 109 of The Mix, Mixmag's prestigious series. In a session characterized by luminous, sunshine-tinged atmospheres, DINA connects the dots between different global trance underground scenes, demonstrating her deep understanding of contemporary electronic culture.
In conversation with Megan Townsend, DINA delves into the importance of community in electronic music and how she finds inspiration in seemingly disparate scenes. Her approach transcends geographical and stylistic boundaries, weaving connections between underground movements from different parts of the world.
Diversity and the future of trance
One of the central themes of the interview is the need to move trance away from its white male-dominated past. DINA positions herself as a crucial voice in the transformation of the scene, advocating for greater representation and diversity in a genre that has historically lacked it.
The producer doesn't just talk about these issues—she materializes them in her work. Her musical selection and presence in the Berlin scene represent a new generation of artists redefining trance's codes and challenging its established norms.
A mix that transcends genres
The Mix 109 reflects DINA's artistic philosophy: a sonic journey that embraces the diversity of global trance without losing coherence or energy. The sunshine-tinged atmospheres that characterize the set contrast with the genre's inherent intensity, creating a perfect balance between euphoria and contemplation.
From her base in Berlin—the epicenter of European techno and electronic culture—DINA continues to expand trance's boundaries and build bridges between communities. Her work represents not just a musical evolution, but a necessary cultural shift in the electronic scene.
