My name is Mickey, a.k.a Mickon-A. I'm from Israel.  In each set I try to draw a line from start to end, you might call it storytelling.. I usually play new tracks, few weeks old, and travel between Progressive Techno to Ethereal Techno. Always aiming for a good ride.. 😍

ARJ (IR) is a Toronto-born electronic music producer and DJ known for his work in deep and progressive house. His early exposure—thanks to his parents—to Global Underground, Buddha Bar, and artists like Dave Seaman and deadmau5 sparked a fascination with emotional depth and evolving structures from as young as age five. Later inspirations such as Guy J, Sébastien Léger, Subandrio, and other key figures in the progressive community further shaped his focus on atmosphere, melodic storytelling, and subtle rhythmic detail.

He began producing in 2025, developing his craft through dedicated experimentation and a growing interest in creating immersive, evolving compositions. With music now signed to labels such as AH Digital, Balkan Connection, Future Avenue, and Sound Of Harmonies—and with his tracks remixed by heavyweights in the global progressive scene including Kyotto, Nishan Lee, Fran Baigo, Seba Benedetti, and more—his studio approach emphasizes thoughtful arrangement and refined sound design, balancing groove-forward energy with introspective melodics.

Having already received support from artists like Blake Jarell, Cosmonaut, Teleport-X, Luca Abayan, Nicolas Viana, and Noise Generation—and having shared the stage with progressive house icons including Guy Mantzur and Hicky & Kalo, as well as local talents such as Sa-MoaN, Locotek, and Oz Akgun—ARJ (IR) continues to refine his artistic voice with steady growth and authentic expression. His aim is to contribute meaningfully to the evolution of progressive house, driven by a deep and enduring passion for the genre.
