#About DJ Adriana

Whether it’s returning to airwaves for PBS or behind the decks Adriana brings infectious energy to everything she does. After being a staple curator in Melbourne’s community radio scene, Adriana’s Tuesday 7-8 slot, Opalakia, was a fertile space for sharing flavours of dance-inflected world music to an eager band of fans, subscribers and listeners. Since leaving PBS, Adriana has launched SPASTA, her instant classic party which has rapidly garnered a cult audience for its unpretentious, rhapsodic moments in the dancefloor. Spasta, which means ‘to break’ has smashed plates, thrown flowers at live Bouziki players, hosted traditional Pontian dancers and cracked eggs, with traditional Greek food and a daring programme of Australia’s, and the globes best record collectors and selectors. It’s a party made for the heads, with all your notions left at the door mat.

In the booth, Adriana is bound by nothing, coasting between traditional and contemporary sounds her sets are a sonic jaunt, touching down on all four corners of the globe on a rollercoaster that excites as much as it surprises. A favourite for dancers, Adriana has delivered famous sets at Freedom Time and a fabled Hopkins Creek which still echoes today as one of the most memorable d-floor moments in recent memory. Equally as popular amongst the heads, Adriana has been sought out for mixes from some of the globe’s most esteemed tastemakers with mixes for Planet Trip and Brilliant Corners.

With unstoppable energy that radiates in any room, Adriana’s passion for the eclectic makes her one of the cities finest and most down to Earth diggers. Expect a riot of genres, enthusiasm and curiosity, all delivered with smiles and an OPA!
