Her memories of childhood take her back to the game-like idea of mixing and making music. Ever since she can remember, that's her passion. Guillermina Molfino was born in Santa Fe 26 years ago and was raised in the town of Rafaela where, despite de difficulties to have a access to the latest news music-wise that concerned her, she could gather a rich record collection of Jazz, Bossa nova, Soul and Electro.
Already settled in the province of Cordoba, in 1996 she discovered House, the style that she identifies with ever since. There she began a friendship with the owner of a record store who, out of the business hours, let her use the turntables to learn the first thing about the DJ technique. Once her kit was fully equipped and her eagerness to know different trends stirred, on 1999 she travelled to New York to become familiar with the dance scene of that city.
The year 2000 found her back in Argentina, settling down in Buenos Aires to give her -by then- DJ hobby a professional nature. Moving along the still waters of Deep House, she played one of her first evenings at El Gran Danzon bar, at the pop hotel Boquitas Pintadas, La Morocha Home and Animal until she acquired some relevance in significant clubs of the local circuit. She finally became part of the artistic line up in all the editions of the Creamfields BA festival.
Her experience enabled her to share the booth with big names of the world panorama such DJ Heaven, Lee Burridge, Steve Lawler, and more recently with Sander Kleinenberg, Satoshi Tomiie (in Uruguay and Argentina), Jimmy Van M and Audio Bullys, in their presentation in Rosario (Santa Fe province). Likewise, her career grew bigger with tours throughout the country and even beyond the Argentine's border (her Spain Tour in 2002 and her recent trip to the US to perform in New York are highlights). As a result of a busy year, heavy with presentations in the South American circuit and weekly engagements in booths all over the country which even until today fill up her schedule, during summer 2004 Mina obtained a daily residence at Masterbeach -Bikini Beach in Punta del Este- musicalizing all kinds of events for the summer nights in the eastern coast.
Nowadays, while she continues to develop her ascending career as a dj and gives her first steps production-wise, Mina keeps a most valuable communication with her audience through Metrodance (95.1 FM) electronic music radio station, on the section Late Night (Mondays, from 1 am to 3 am).
