About Me

Emma Sound es MUJER pionera en la escena underground, raices y de world beat en Nueva York. Tiene como escuela y escenario el controversial Bulgarian Bar (mehanata) y lleva aproximadamente 15 anios de experimentacion e investigacion musical bajo el respaldo y tutoria del legendario DJ HUTZ (Gogol Bordello) , el versatil DJ DUBTA (Gogol Bordello), y MAXIMUS RESPECT DJ Joro Boro. Emma Sound es residente de Mehanata y ha compartido escenario con DJ Scratchy (UK), DJ Joro Boro, Eclectica, Vector Zero, Dj Karim, Uproot Andy y mas. Comprometida de manera activa en varios proyectos musicales, colectivos y bandas no solo como DJ sino como interprete (Juglares empiricos, Escarioka sound system, Chasqui Hi fi, La 15 provee and U.C.N.Y.collective) y productora junto a Pedro Erazo (Rebel roots Fest). Emma Sound tambien ha colaborado en la busqueda y seleccion de la banda sonora del documental "Alligator on the Zipper", producido y dirigido por Ivo Stainoff y Jessica Chorneski. Su enfoque principal es mantener la education cultural y conciente que la musica provee. En su extensa busqueda de musica ha tenido la suerte de compartir e intercambiar musica con Deeder Zaaman (Asian Dub Foundation) Esteban Rivera (Skampida, Furibundo Serna, Skartrel) Magu (Desorden Publico, Papa Shanti), DJ Karim, El Indio (Radiochango) Dj OK (Gogol Bordello), Juan Pablo Varela (Dirty Salsa y Pulsar), Babylon Motorhome y Andy Gillis.Los libros son lo maximo, pero los hechos reales de sucesos culturales e historicos a travez de las eras, eMMa los ha encontrado en las liricas y en la musica de todos los tiempos. La emancipacion ha sido la inspiracion principal de este proyecto donde todo el mundo preocupado en todo el mundo esta invitado a participar, pero sobre todo la gente que vive y respira musica y que canta el llanto y la risa es casi necesario que participe.
