tonota (HR)

Producer and musician Ivona Eterović, artistic name tonota, began her musical journey in the electronic rap duo Playground Hustle, after which she started working independently, expanding the genre boundaries of her musical expression. Tonota's unconventional approach to club music, along with more frequent experimentation and avoidance of club rules, results in an interesting combination of ambient and bass music, occasionally influenced by traditional music.
Among her own performances, tonota highlights live acts at the Illectricity Festival, ZEZ Festival, Music Biennale Zagreb and SHIP Festival, as well as collaborations with Summer Like The Season, Sara Renar, Ana Hušman and I.M. Klif, and Stephany Stefan.
In 2021, tonota attended a multi-channel sound diffusion workshop, led by Miodrag Gladović, after which she started exploring spatialization of sound and created her first spatial-sound compositions. She performed on the complex multi-channel speaker system Vienna Acousmonium, in Ljubljana.
In recent years, Eterović has been composing music for theater and film, and in 2024 she enrolled master study of Sound Design at the Editing Department of the Academy of Dramatic Art in Zagreb.
