The techno D.J. Carla Frayman—better known by her alias, “Carlita”—travels so much that she feels at home on planes. “You travel between space and time when you’re in a plane,” she says. “I really like that.”

In mid-December, Frayman, 27, called me from Athens, where she was relaxing for a few days before a hectic end of the year. “I’m just going to chill. I want to be away from everything.” Two weeks later, she D.J’d for a night in Qatar, two nights in Jidda, and over a weekend in her native Turkey. On Monday, she’s playing at the Day Zero music festival, in Tulum. Next weekend, she’ll be headlining a party in Phuket.
