Monument Podcast

If you were lucky enough to be there, DJ Maria's deep, transcendent trip likely remains etched firmly into your memories. Her legendary Saturday evening set has rightfully earned its place as a celebrated piece of Monument Festival’s history. Reflecting on her experience, she shared: “..One of those unforgettable memories is Monument Festival. It was one of the best festivals of my life, and I am truly grateful for the opportunity to perform in such a dream-like setting..” Dream-like is the perfect way to describe her sound. Her set was a seamless blend of techno, trance, and acid—timeless and yet completely attuned to the moment. If you weren’t there, well..today’s your lucky day. Take a trip back to the forest and relive the dream today. Follow: https://soundcloud.com/djmaria-jp https://www.instagram.com/mariasatelles/ https://www.facebook.com/djmaria.jp/
