Spain’s “Psymama” Indira Paganotto teams up with El Karima for “DREAM,” on Tomorrowland Music/Artcore. True to its title, the track is built around an ethereal, floating vocal that pulls the listener into a state somewhere between euphoria and pure reverie. It is a release that distills everything Indira does best: raw dancefloor energy wrapped in unexpected, weightless beauty.
Indira Paganotto was born in 1992 in the Canary Islands, reflecting her Spanish and Italian heritage. Over the years, she has forged an unmistakable identity within the contemporary electronic music landscape. Her unique sound inevitably draws from the eclectic musical upbringing fostered by her father, a DJ in the 1980s. He introduced her to the rich worlds of disco, jazz, acid house, and Goa music, which continue to influence her creative output today.
Known affectionately as the “Psymama,” Indira has established her niche within the psy-trance genre, artfully intertwining it with techno elements. This fusion results in a sound that is both innovative and distinct, encapsulating a vibe that resonates immediately with her audience.
Indira’s DJ sets are revered for their seamless blend of elegance and high-energy danceability. Whether she’s in a large festival setting or an intimate underground club, she has an extraordinary ability to maintain an energetic pulse. Her vivacious smile often accompanies her performances, establishing a deep connection with audiences as they lose themselves in the music.
The new single, “DREAM,” has arrived just as Indira prepares for two major appearances at the renowned Tomorrowland festival: she will grace the Atmosphere stage on Saturday, July 18, and take the Mainstage on Friday, July 24. These performances are highly anticipated, as she has a long-standing history with the festival, having played various stages in previous years.
The dreamy, hypnotic vocals at the heart of “DREAM” gift the track with an emotional depth, distinguishing it from the more high-octane offerings in her repertoire. This collaboration with El Karima adds a fascinating new layer to Indira’s artistic expression and teases even more creative ventures in the future.
Adding to an already jam-packed July, the Artcore label is set to release the much-anticipated ARTCORE VA compilation on Artcore/Tomorrowland Music on July 17—just one day before the Artcore takeover at Tomorrowland’s Atmosphere stage. This compilation is expected to draw attention as it features contributions from a carefully curated selection of artists, with the full lineup to be unveiled soon.
“ARTCORE VA” embodies the spirit of the Artcore label, capturing the essence of raw, diverse, and creatively uncompromising releases. It serves as the ultimate warm-up for what promises to be a landmark moment for those fortunate enough to attend Tomorrowland.
“DREAM” is also a significant release for Artcore, which is not only Indira’s own label but also her events brand that has quickly gained prominence on the touring scene. With global Artcore showcases on the horizon, a Hï Ibiza residency, and numerous upcoming releases, her momentum shows no signs of abating.
With her relentless energy, unwavering dedication, and unparalleled ability to ignite dance floors, Indira Paganotto stands as a formidable force in the electronic music realm, propelled by a bright trajectory of growth and exploration.
