Mission
Future Sound of Nature (FSON) blends the soul of electronic music with the rhythms of the Earth to help us remember that we are all part of a beautiful interconnected web of life, and it's up to us to take care of it. Our work revolves around the fundamental principle of Regeneration, collaborating with Nature to support the communities and ecosystems where we live, create and gather.
We are a community of artists, musicians and nature lovers, cultivating a habitat for electronic music, creative work and community events that give Nature a voice as co-creator. Originally sprouting as a regenerative electronic music festival in Upstate New York, the FSON ecosystem also encompasses a multi-media label and an internet radio station in a permaculture greenhouse–creating opportunities for humans to come together, get creative, and connect with each other and the world around us.
With gratitude to all the ancestors who came before us, we honor the profound bond between humans and the land we share with all living things, we are here to help us remember that WE ARE ALL NATURE!

Andrea Lubrano
Gut Feeling
Raised between Venezuela and New York, my life's journey is driven by a deep respect for various cultures, majorly expressed through food. My quest for unique global flavors and authentic culinary experiences has evolved into a love for healthy, culturally-sensitive eating. Currently, I channel my energy into Nutritional counseling through Gut Feeling Consulting, a one-on-one gut-health-centered practice that explores the root cause of all dysfunctions and traces them back to digestive function. This work allows me to blend my passion for cultural food traditions with promoting holistic health.
Lola Villa
DJs For Climate Action
Born and raised in Bogotá, Colombia, Lola is a DJ, producer, and mentor who invites us to slow down and rediscover nature's serenity. Her own productions are deeply influenced by her respect for the natural world, inspired by indigenous groups in her homeland and her passion for Japan. Lola integrates the Japanese tradition of Shinrin-yoku (forest bathing) into her sound, creating immersive journeys both in and outside the club.
Using field recordings, Lola recreates the therapeutic essence of nature, emphasizing the bond between our inner selves and the environment. Her exploration of mindfulness, sound healing, and plant consciousness significantly shapes her music, deep ecology, and creative process.
As a member of DJs for Climate Action, she believes the revolution will happen on the dancefloor. Based between Mexico and Berlin, Lola lives with her dog, Aya.
