Armin van Buuren says: “Indira has been at the forefront of the psytrance and techno scene for several years now and I’m amazed at how quickly she took it by storm. She reached out to me a while back, and blending our styles seemed to make a lot of sense. So as you can expect, ‘Dragon’ is one for the mainstages!”
Indira Paganotto adds: “For me, ‘Dragon’ is the power of everything! Its nature, humanity, art, and spirituality. It's the result of two forces with the same mission, to reach the hearts and minds of our warriors with our music. So excited for this release to finally come out, we have both been playing this for a while and it's magical.”
‘Dragon’ is out now on Armada Music.

About Indira Paganotto
Born in 1992, today Indira Paganotto is one of Spain’s most prominent figures in the world of music. Her sets are full of energy and undeniable danceability. In the last 13 years she has changed the dance music industry, being the driving force behind a new sound, psy-techno. At the age of just 17 she signed a total of 3 vinyl releases to Ian Pooley’s label Pooled Music, after he discovered her during a warm-up set she played in Gran Canaria. Soon after, she moved to Madrid where she could focus on producing and DJing at a bigger scale.
Her debut collaboration with Nina Kraviz in 2023 for ‘White Horse’ on Trip, also came with the launch of her label ARTCORE with her EP ‘Guns & Horses’. Today, ARTCORE is spearheading the ‘psy-techno’ movement, a genre the label has effectively crafted itself over its last 15 releases. They charge into 2025 with ARTCORE curated stages at the world’s biggest festivals. Indira’s rise has been unstoppable, from remixing Depeche Mode’s ‘People Are Good’ to headlining all major clubs and events, with upcoming performances at Coachella, Tomorrowland, EXIT, Sonar, Awakenings and Mysteryland. But it’s at Monegros she’ll make history as the first woman to ever close the main stage in July and will be taking over Ibiza with her brand-new residency at Hi Ibiza, over 14 weeks of the summer. Although 2025 looks to be her biggest year yet, also with a debut album release, she remains humble and dedicated to her work, with infectious energy and a smile as bright as her fue.
