ARADIA

When Aradia walks down the street in Manhattan, she starts to hear music. For this NYC native & entirely self-produced alt-pop electronica musician, it’s one of the best ways for her to glean inspiration. Citing the iconic German supergroup Kraftwerk as a formative inspiration in her musical journey, Aradia has a clear vision for the kind of music she wants to make and exactly how she wants to make it. 
 If the music of Empire Of The Sun and Def Leppard were to intertwine with Robyn and MARINA, it might be getting close to the sonic worlds Aradia builds from scratch every day — but, even so, Aradia is something all her own. Aradia loves being onstage, considering the communal experience of live music something close to sacred. With years of performance experience under her belt, it’s easy to envision Aradia on festival lineups and in venues worldwide. Rather than focus on commercial response, Aradia is laser-focused on the details of a song feeling right. And, beyond that, she’s meticulous and passionate not just in production but in her social focuses, too. She’s eager to contribute to creating a more equitable world, and hopes to encourage more women to take up production, too. She loves being at the board, but wants more people like her in the room. The great thing about listening to an Aradia song, though, is with her imaginative touch, unique perspective, and expert skill set, that kind of world doesn’t feel quite so far away.
