MUSIC IS A MANTRA with Dia Luna

Dia Luna is the sly alias of Mexican-American artist Andrea Diaz and the name of her art-pop project with her cousin, main producer, and engineer, Tomas Deltoro-Diaz. Dia Luna collages a variety of sounds and influences to create music that is both artful and familiar. Her live set pushes the boundaries of performance, utilizing looping as a method of layering her luscious vocals and breathing life into her song arrangements. While Dia Luna is Andrea’s primary vehicle of expression, her creativity travels effortlessly across many distinct avenues, including collaborative music projects as a songwriter, lead vocalist, and backing vocalist; as well as composing exceptional vocal arrangements, compelling lyrics, and surprising melodic elements as a producer. Her work also encompasses film and creative direction, while her spiritual practice has guided her toward working with others as a tarot reader and advisor, using her inherent sensitivities and her deep knowledge of visual symbols to help others clarify their desires and dreams.In this episode, Dia talks about the power of shaping energy through music, creating the Immaterial World theme song, and so much more. Musical Inspirations mentioned: Amarae, Dua Saleh, Kate Bush, Ibrahim FerrerWatch some of Dia Luna's music videos: June, Wilderness, Cerulean, Your Present, In the Air TonightBecome an Immaterial World supporter!Hosted by Jessica Richards and Jezmina Von ThieleFor bookings and for more about Jessica visit: www.the12th.house and Instagram: @jessicaxrich For bookings and for more about Jezmina visit: www.jezminavonthiele.com and Instagram: @jezmina.vonthieleMusic and editing by DIA LUNAInstagram: @dialunamusicArtwork by Lane Friend Instagram: @friendlaneSupport the show
