Cora Novoa + Carlota

Info

Cora Novoa is a music producer, DJ, and creative director who has redefined Spanish electronic music at the intersection of art, technology, and sound research. Having started in classical music as a flute player, she discovered the electronic production universe through computer science, embarking on a self-taught path that would lead her to become one of the most influential and coherent voices on the international electronic scene. After living in Madrid and Berlin, she settled in Barcelona, where she founded SEEKING THE VELVET (2014), her independent transmedia label that merges electronic music and experimental pop with art, music, and technology. Her work has been recognized by prestigious labels such as Turbo Recordings (by Tiga) and Citizen Records (founded by Vitalic). Her music has received support from artists such as Luke Slater, Marcel Dettmann, Dave Clarke, DVS1, Slam, Louisahhh, Djedjotronic, Ancient Methods, Schwefelgelb, Risa Taniguchi, and many more. In 2017, she was awarded Best DJ of the Year at the Vicious Music Awards, the first time a woman received this recognition in this category, consolidating her international position. Her collaborative work reached global dimensions in 2023 when, thanks to her production on the remix of “Flotante” within the albumReputaby the artist Zahara, both were nominated for the Latin Grammy Awards in the category of “Best Alternative Album”—a historic distinction, as it was the first Latin Grammy ceremony held in Spain. More recently, she received the 2025 Fonograma Award from the Catalan Association of Phonographic Producers for her contribution to the dissemination of recorded music for Catalan culture. Alongside her artistic activity, Cora Novoa is an Ableton Official Certified Trainer and a musical content curator, delivering masterclasses on production, the music industry, and creativity. She has presented her live audio-visual shows at iconic venues such as Sónar Barcelona, the Tate Modern Museum in London, Fabric London, and Mutek Montreal. Additionally, she sits on selection and support committees for emerging talent, serving as a jury member for the Will Smith Emerging Artist Fund (2025), demonstrating her commitment to the decentralization of knowledge and the visibility of underrepresented perspectives in the industry. Her conceptual albums—Fight Love Faith(2015),The Hive, and theMental Diarytrilogy (withACT III: This is not about you and me. This is about usbeing her most recent release in 2024)—reflect her continuous evolution from melodic sounds toward more radical explorations using modular synthesizers, analogue drum machines, and experimental narratives. Cora Novoa embodies the synthesis between analogue craftsmanship and digital vanguard, projecting a legacy that transcends music: that of a creator who builds cultural ecosystems from independence with artistic coherence and professional generosity. Carlota is an emerging DJ from Barcelona and one of the new faces of the city’s Techno sound. Her passion for electronic music has driven her to perfect the art of mixing, focusing on powerful, dark, and rhythmic sounds of new-school techno while clearly influenced by classic techno, creating sets where dancing is impossible to resist. For her, music is more than entertainment: it is a tool for transformation and a safe space for expression where she can truly be herself. Music is everything. Her talent has led her, in just one year, to perform in iconic Barcelona venues such as Moog and Nitsa, establishing herself as an up-and-coming artist within the underground scene. Mister Majestyk is one of the key figures of Villarosa, with a career that includes residencies at iconic venues such as Nasty Mondays, Cupcake, and Crappy. He currently stands out for spinning major hits from the ’80s and ’90s, as well as classic pop and rock, bringing an unmistakable energy that keeps the dance floor full and the atmosphere festive.
