Anfisa Letyago bio
As well as being a DJ, producer and vocal talent, Anfisa Letyago is also a disarming personality. Techno might have a reputation as a moody genre, but Anfisa brings a different kind of energy to the underground music scene. The Naples-based artist radiates positivity in her sets, all smiles at the decks while journeying through groovy techno beats and contemporary trance melodies.
Anfisa lives in Napoli – the cultural centre of Southern Italy, where the club scene is sincere and passionate, and where she first gained a strong attraction to electronic music. It was there that she had the opportunity to listen to many international DJs. In the beginning, she first started to approach DJing as a disc selector in small clubs, and these experiences developed her interest in record collecting and discovering new music.
The first of Anfisa’s productions were influenced by groovy techno and house music which were very popular in Napoli. After a serendipitous meeting with Carl Cox, she found an upsurge in support from the dance scene – he appreciated her music and immediately started supporting her, a “casual meeting that changed something in my life” – and he played out the contents of a USB she handed him in his sets. After this, he came to release her music on his label Intec Digital (her ‘So Good’ and ‘Hypnotic’ EPs landed on his Intec). He declared her “the revelation of the last year; a live performer talented and full of energy”.
Soon enough, labels were approaching her for releases, and she’s since graced Nervous, Kompakt, Deutsche Grammophon, Rekids and Hotflush, among others. But, realising that she wanted an outlet for her music that she thought wouldn’t fit on other labels, she began her own NSDA record label, which has released remixes work by Calibre, DJ Rush, DJ Seinfield, DJ Tennis, DJ Daddy Trance and many others.
