Madalba

Madalba is an Italian DJ, producer, and vinyl enthusiast renowned for her dynamic presence in the global techno and underground music scene. Originally hailing from Bari in southern Italy, she has built a reputation for her magnetic sets that seamlessly fuse deep, driving techno with raw, industrial sounds. A passionate crate digger, Madalba’s commitment to vinyl-only performances has established her as a purist within the European electronic music community.

Since her debut in the mid-2000s, she has developed her craft through residencies in pivotal Italian clubs and appearances at influential venues and festivals across Europe, South America, and beyond. Madalba is perhaps best known for her longstanding residency at Tresor Berlin and for her work with the Underground Resistance-mentored collective Female:Pressure, where she champions female and non-binary representation in electronic music. Her productions, released on respected imprints such as Blackwater and Newrhythmic, showcase her affinity for hypnotic loops, dark melodies, and relentless grooves.

Beyond her technical skills, Madalba is widely regarded as a forward-thinking artist and curator, continuously exploring new sound territories while staying rooted in the tradition and energy of classic techno.
