Frinda di Lanco

Frinda di Lanco’s tour itinerary reads like a love letter to the global dance music scene, with stops at some of the most revered venues and festivals around the world. From the sprawling fields of Fusion Festival, to the vibrant atmosphere of Primavera Sound to the sandy beaches of Boom festival, di Lanco has a knack for turning any stage into a communal celebration of sound. In Berlin, she’s a familiar face at the city’s legendary hotspots like Italorama, Cocktail d’Amore, and Horse Meat Disco, where her eclectic selections resonate with the city’s avant-garde spirit. The Sound Metaphors and Fandango parties, known for their infectious energy, are another canvas for her artistry. Beyond playing in her hometown, di Lanco’s reach extends to the pulsating nightlife of Sunday Sunday in Mexico City, San Francisco’s very own Bar Part Time, Copenhagen’s Jolene Bar, Bellafesta Dublin, the underground vibes of Tag Chengdu in China as to the audiophile setting of Club Kaiku in Helsinki.

But di Lanco’s talents extend far beyond the decks. As a record digger, she possesses an insatiable curiosity that drives her to scour thrift stores, flea markets, and dusty basements from Los Angeles to Beijing and from Oslo to Palermo in search of vinyl treasures. This dedication to the craft not only enriches her own sets but also informs her work as a label manager. At the helm of her own Avec Plaisir imprint, she is providing a platform for her very personal visions in conjunction with her partner Hendrik Stein. Her keen eye for talent and commitment to quality over quantity has positioned her label as a respected force in the industry.

In her role as a radio host, di Lanco brings her infectious enthusiasm to the airwaves with her bi-monthly show „Music From Mullets“ on Cashmere Radio. Crafting shows that are as much about storytelling as they are about music, each broadcast is a carefully curated experience, blending thematic explorations, biographical facts and live recordings that reflect her diverse influences. It’s here that her personality shines through, as she connects with listeners on a personal level, sharing anecdotes and insights that make the music feel alive.

Frinda di Lanco is not just a DJ or a label manager; she is a cultural architect, shaping the sonic landscape with her unique vision. In a time when the music industry often prioritizes trends over substance, di Lanco stands as a reminder of the power of passion and authenticity. Her journey is a celebration of the art of music itself, and she continues to push boundaries and explore new horizons.
