Siberian-born, Italy-based rising producer talent Anfisa Letyago delivers this week’s Global Vibe Radio mix ahead of her December 27th US debut at The Lost Circus, an event taking place at Avant Gardner in Brooklyn, New York. Info and tickets for the event can be found HERE.
Though sheâs been DJing for 10 years, her careerâs upward trajectory began after her 2016 âStop Talkingâ track release and it’s been a heavy stream of high-profile performances at festivals and alongside world- class producers and DJs ever since. This year alone sheâs released three EPs: âBright Lightsâ on Nervous Records and two on Intec Digital, Carl Coxâs label to which she signed earlier this year.
The musical journey of Anfisa Letyago began almost 10 years ago in her home town of Naples where she first began to experiment with Djing and productions, driven by pure passion. Fast forward to 2016 where she dropped her first release on the iconic dutch label Spinninâ Records alongside Leroy Styles. âStop Talkingâ would eventually pave the way for her introduction into the world of electronic music, demonstrating her versatility as an artist and ability to stand out.
Proving her prowess behind the decks from the get go, Anfisa has performed around the world alongside some of the biggest names in the game, such as Radio Slave, Pan-Pot, DJ Pierre to name a few. Sheâs commanded the stage at some of the biggest festivals in the world, as well as holding her own in more intimate settings, each time bringing her signature effervescent technique. Her touring schedule is varied, playing in venues such as Crobar in Argentina, Club Room in Chile, Pacha Munich, Watergate Berlin, De Marktantine Amsterdam, Barraca Valencia, Galerie Kurzweil Darmstadt, Thuishaven, Hyte Berlin and many others.
Breakthrough DJ/producer of 2019: âAnfisa Letyago. Iâm gonna put her on at Ultra next year, sheâs a really talented live performerâ – Carl Cox, DJ Mag, powered by Beatport.
The past couple of years have seen Anfisa hone her talents and perfect her craft by pushing boundaries, experimenting and constantly evolving. Her current style moves between that of hard-hitting techno, groovy deep house and the other realms of underground music. Taking everything she has learned throughout her years both on the road and in the studio, she combines these influences to form her polished signature sound.
The result has seen her productions start to gain momentum on the scene, with the Tech House heavy âI Feelâ EP on Natura Viva in 2017 garnering huge attention and her âBright Lightsâ EP on Nervous Records making a splash early this year.
2020 is set to be another big year for Anfisa, she has an upcoming EP slated for release on the infamous Rekids (with remixes from Mark Broom and Marco Faraone) as well as a remix for Berlin powerhouse Pan-Potâs âConfrontedâ on Second State and a remix for Tube & Berger in the works on their label Kitball. Her productions have won the support of many prolific fellow DJâs such as Adam Beyer, Charlotte De Witte and the aforementioned Carl Cox who has gone on to be an ardent backer of her music by signing her 2 EPâs, âSo Goodâ and âCatch the Spiritâ to his higher regarded Intec label.
Not one to conform to one genre, Anfisa has proven herself to be adaptable, most recently going back to back with DJ Pierre at ADE with a legendary acid house set. This subsequently led to her remixing the notorious âPhuture – Acid Traxâ as part of DJ Pierreâs 35th anniversary compilation release, alongside Carl Cox and Luciano, (available now on both vinyl and digital).
