'Arte Como Amante' Track Breakdown with Indira Paganotto hosted by DJ Mag
Speaker: Indira Paganotto (Artist)
Moderator: Rob McCallum (Digital Content Director, DJ Mag)
Level: Intermediate
This ADE Lab session is a rare chance to go inside the studio with Indira Paganotto as she breaks down her brand-new single ‘Arte Como Amante’, created with none other than Grammy-winning artist and producer Nile Rodgers. As the lead single from her upcoming album of the same name, this track is a bold fusion of raw techno, Spanish identity and timeless groove, which she created to get back to her roots.
In conversation with DJ Mag, Indira will share how the track came to life, from its early ideas in 2020, to her creative connection with Nile Rodgers, to the final version that she just released on her own imprint. Expect an in-depth look at her production process, the elements that define the ARTCORE sound, and the emotional storytelling behind the music.
Whether you are a producer looking for inspiration, a fan of Indira’s sound, or curious about how collaborations with legends happen in real life, this is your chance to see how one of the year’s most anticipated tracks was made, step by step.
