Livia Borzetti, known as Key Clef, is a Berlin-based Italian DJ and producer with a strong passion for analogue instruments and the founder of the label Ipnotica Erotica.
After experiencing the final years of Rome’s flourishing rave scene and earning a degree in sound engineering, her creative process evolved in different directions, ranging from club music to performance art and electroacoustics. In 2013, she released her first digital EP, followed by many others on different labels worldwide.
In her own world, music is a continuous dialogue between styles and a process of hybridization.
Her music productions, as well as her live performances, incorporate synths, drum machines and analogue effects, reflecting her ethereal trajectory, while her DJ sets reveal the full spectrum of her musical taste and knowledge of the dance floor.
Key Clef’s sound doesn’t hit the surface but instead aims to channel emotions and create a
connection between her music and the audience.
In recent years, she has founded a community of artists under the name ACXS, creating collaborative projects involving artists and brands. She has also become a resident DJ at Berghain, one of the most important clubs in Europe, while developing a new path in a more experimental direction, opening the door to sound research beyond her comfort zone. By entering the world of artistic residencies, she has quickly gained recognition for her ability to communicate through art.
Key Clef’s mission is not to deliver a product but to create a shared experience.
