Mia Moretti is a multifaceted creative force, operating as a DJ, music producer, and songwriter, with a strong presence in the vibrant city of Los Angeles. Her journey in the music industry began on the iconic Sunset Strip, where she honed her skills by playing vinyl records and developed a profound sense of sonic curiosity.
As her career accelerated, Moretti relocated to the Lower East Side of New York, where she became a key figure in the city's burgeoning DJ scene. Her unique style and compelling storytelling abilities soon made her a sought-after talent, as she was commissioned to create runway shows and soundscapes for emerging New York fashion designers.
Moretti's exceptional ear for music led her to perform at exclusive events within the esteemed halls of the Louvre, and she secured DJ residencies along the glamorous Las Vegas Strip. Her debut EP, Tambor, released in December 2023, is a testament to her innovative approach, featuring samples from renowned Bullerengue artists from Colombia, including Petrona Martinez and Toto La Momposina.
In a nod to the traditional matrilineal practices of the Bullerengue community, Moretti collaborated with the granddaughters of Toto La Momposina to re-record the classic Colombian song, Rosa. This project not only showcases Moretti's dedication to cultural preservation but also her ability to seamlessly blend past and present, creating a unique sound that is both deeply rooted in tradition and forward-thinking in its approach.
