Q&A: Marymoon, St. Petersburg’s Rising Producer and DJ

Mary Dudina, or Marymoon as she is known when she is in the studio and behind the decks, is a Russian-based producer and DJ on the rise. In the past few years she has graced the decks at elrow at Space Ibiza, played support for established artists the likes of My Favorite Robot, &ME, Adam Port, Gorje Hewek & Izhevski and headlining performances at Do Not Sit (Miami), Rodan (Chicago), Halcyon (San Francisco) and House of Yes (NYC), all on top of several gigs in her home country.

We caught up with Mary in Los Angeles where she played Clinic Wednesdays for the Underrated Presents group, right in the midst of a U.S. tour that saw her play several major cities with a last gig at Spybar Chicago tomorrow, Friday 24th of February. There she is headlining a night presented by Manifest, an organization that focuses on quality music, integrity of purpose and an ego-less environment where a great atmosphere is key. In light with that vision, Manifest is donating their proceeds for the night to Marwen, an arts-focused non-profit helping kids in Chicago. You can RSVP here for free entry to the event.
