Isadora "Izzy" Camina is a British-American music producer. Born in Venice, California, Izzy began making beats on Fruity Loops in highschool, before transitioning to Ableton Live. She released independently under the name ISADORA, [1] including her self written and produced EP, Battle Royale. [2] Two of the songs off of the EP reached the top 25 on Spotify's UK Viral Charts. [3]

In 2020, under "Izzy Camina", [4] she released the tracks "UP N DOWN", [5] "Nihilist In The Club", [6] and "Kill Your Local Indie Softboy". [7] Regarding the latter, Izzy states “I wrote this song in Spring 2017 as a joke, obviously,”. “In New Jersey where I’m from, guys like to vape and go to car meets, or maybe they watch Joe Rogan and go to sports bars. Either way; plucky, bright-eyed, and very single me was not prepared for this new phenomenon of softboyism I would shortly encounter upon moving to East London. Alarmed by their numbers, I realized that this alluring faction would probably end up occupying a great deal of my headspace. I was right, and the resulting fallout is tenderly embodied by this fond ode… A heartfelt dedication.”

She cites Jersey club, UK garage, experimental electronic, synth wave, post punk, and pop as genre influences. [8] In 2020, she described her music as “Cyberpunk Britney Spears”. [9]
