MDM LAB

Stories that inspire

Meet some of the artists who have participated in the MaddaM Lab.

I understand the importance of MaddaM in Recife as a collective that truly promotes the inclusion of women, trans people, and young people from the outskirts of the city in the music market. MaddaM was a school for me that allowed me access to knowledge and practice with the equipment. And it wasn't just about teaching me, but about giving me opportunities… opportunities to play, to show my talent, to grow and project myself as an artist. MaddaM is about opening doors to the future… and today I am the future of MaddaM!

The girls who make up MaddaM bring the girls closer, give them access to equipment, teach them about technical aspects, the history of electronic music, the formation of a sonic identity, helping us find our identity in music... it was very enriching and important for me back at the beginning of my journey.

MaddaM aims to place you within a different perspective on the future. It makes you dream of a future and helps you build that future.

DJ and Beatmaker - Beat Production Teacher at MaddaM LAB

MaddaM impacts both the personal and professional lives of those who participate in its activities, and I believe it inevitably impacts the local economy as well, since for many of us, music has become a real profession.
