ISAbella
ISAbella, a luminous force in Barcelona's queer nightlife.
A native of Colombia, ISAbella is one of the leading figures in the Barcelona club scene, but her reach goes far beyond the DJ booth. A co-founder of a celebrated LGBTQ+ party, platform, and collective MARICAS, she’s become a veritable icon within the city’s queer community while carving out space for dancers of all stripes and backgrounds to find connection, both on and off the dancefloor.
In 2020, ISAbella kicked off the MARICAS Records label with her debut EP Audio Exótica. Also, it spearheaded the livestream series MARICAS: The Art of Staying at Home, which provided a beacon of light during the darkness of lockdown. Since then, she’s continued to produce, contributing tracks to compilations on Peach Discs and MARICAS Records. She has also leveled up her craft as a DJ, bringing her life-affirming mix of house, techno, and trance to a slew of world-renowned festivals (Glastonbury, Primavera Sound, Love International, Dekmantel Seectors) and nightclubs (Fabric, Robert Johnson, OHM, Kaiku). MARICAS opened the door to all that, but ISAbella has now burst through it, and she’s determined to bring her entire community along for the ride.
