Music producers find themselves caught in a catch-22: Instead of blasting their works at festivals and nightclubs, they are now at home producing new music they can t play to the crowds.
And yet, Nora En Pure (AKA Daniela Di Lillo) continues to evolve and reflect on her steadfast skillset. When I think back, certainly my sound has changed with the trends, starting with the more commercial deep house and now more progressive, Di Lillo tells
New Times from her home in Switzerland. Now it feels like deep house is sounding like how it did back in the day.
Her popularity in Miami can seem instantaneous, between her Ultra main stage slots and what would have been her signature Purified party set for March of last year. However, the South African-born, Swiss-based DJ has been hypnotizing the world with her unobtrusive deep-house soundscapes for over a decade and earning her the accolade, Queen of Deep House.

For right now, the listener can still appreciate Nora En Pure s sounds via her upcoming EP,
Monsoon.
Set to release January 29 via Enormous Tunes,
Monsoon is a testament to Di Lillo s signature chasmic sounds and her philosophy of moving fast and progressing. During the last year or two, I ve been playing slightly more into the progressive sound, Di Lillo says. I m not quite there yet, or I may never go there, but I like this mix between deep and a little more power from progressive.
