EMMA IOVINO biography
Emma has always been passionate about music. In the Seventies and Eighties she had her own show on various independent radio stations in around Rome, including her own programme on the prestigious national state-owned network, Rai Radio 3. She played vinyls in clubs and discos around Italy, one of the very few female djs at the time, specialising in Latin American dance tracks. She would go to South America regularly to source the music and pick up vinyls that were unavailable in Europe.
She put her music career on hold as she went into the world of television and cinema working as a set designer for TV shows, advertisements and videoclips.
She then spent twenty years as an activist for women’s rights, promoting legislation in Italy in defence of abused women.
In 2018 she decided to start djing again with a sound ranging from afrohouse to melodic and organic house with some techno influences. She has her own “Curly House” radio show that is also a party in Northern Italy.
