Dhuna is not interested in just blending in. Her sets are built around moments, not formulas.
“I like to surprise with unexpected twists, to connect genres, and to leave moments people will remember. It could be a special track that is not the trend of the moment or maybe one that was many years ago, something nobody

That same philosophy is what fuels DEPARTURES, her line of SoundCloud mixes that tie her passion for aviation with her vision of music as travel.
“My DEPARTURES mixes come from the fusion of my
passions: music and aviation. Each set represents a journey, which is why I title them with the name of a Gate. These mixes are taken from live sessions du- ring my shows, and afterwards I add an intro that transforms them into experiences ready for takeoff.”

“I watch the intensity with which people dance, how they react to the details of a track. It’s like a conversation. I propose, the floor responds, and in that back-and- forth, I decide the direction. The important thing is to keep the journey coherent, even if the in- tensity changes. The energy of the crowd tells me if it’s time to push, to fly, or to pull back.”
That responsiveness is what allows her to move seamlessly between festivals and intimate clubs.
“While a club’s controlled en- vironment allows for
freedom to experiment, at a festival I lean toward a safer, more direct approach. Sound quality plays a crucial role in this. In intimate spaces like clubs, I tend to take more ris- ks, while at a festival, my goal is to make sure the impact is immediate and strong, adapting to the diversity of the audience.”
And when the room isn’t responding the way she expects, she doesn’t force it.
“The first thing I look at is if people are enjoying themselves, and a good indicator is if they’re dancing. If I notice that
energy is flowing, I know I’m on the right path. But sometimes the vibe isn’t what I expected. In those cases, I adjust the sound and track selection to find the right rhythm that hooks them. I always try to be as prepared as possible in case my initial plan doesn’t work and I need more resources.”
EXPANDING HORIZONS
Dhuna’s vision is no longer con- fined to Spain. After planting her flag at Miami Music Week and ADE, she now sets her sights on Central Europe, where many of her inspirations play regularly.

“The truth is that I haven’t had the opportunity to move much around Central Europe, but it’s something I would love to do. I’ve always been drawn to that region, especially because many of my references play there frequently.”
She resists being defined by any single style, even as techno becomes more central to her.
“Although
attracted to techno, I don’t like putting labels on music. I always try to stay open to everything that excites me, regardless of genre. What matters is to mix coherently and fluidly, to make the transitions subtle, so that the musical journey makes sense.”
2025 has been defined by breakthroughs:
returning to the studio, and global milestones. But Dhuna refuses to reduce it to numbers or hype.
The truth is more personal. Every set, every track, every risk is another way of learning about herself and deepening her bond with the crowd.
Her back-to-backs taught her trust. Her productions reminded her
moment. Her residencies forced her to stay adaptable. Festivals pushed her to think big. Clubs allowed her to think differently.

And through it all, the throughli- ne remains the same: intensity, freedom, connection.
Dhuna is not positioning herself as the next star of a single genre. She is carving out something rarer: a career built on presence, honesty, and the willingness to let each chapter transform her sound and her story.
