Good morning.

Today we’re listening to ANNA, a Brazilian electronic music producer and DJ. Her father owned a nightclub in Amparo outside of São Paulo, where she began to play records at the age of 14.¹ Across the 2010s she built credibility in techno venues and festivals around the world, landing on DJ Mag’s top 100 list in 2020. With her latest album, Intentions, she’s taken a left turn into ambient music, producing a gentle, enveloping soundscape that’s meant “to be experienced as a journey for healing and growth.” Track two features Laraaji; track seven features East Forest, the only track with vocals. We’re also playing her 2022 record, The Spring of Dreams, which was made in partnership with Endel.
