Tbilisi-based music artist AVIVX attended the RedBull Music Academy Tokyo at only the age of 21, where his original music was described as distinctly unique, blurring the lines between East and West. His DJ-sets oscillate between Chicago house, New Beat, Italo, trance, techno old and new,  generating a vortex of playful queer techno euphoria. What remains constant throughout his sets is the touching, emotional melodies, grooves and vocals that immerse dancers in highly memorable and rewarding musical experiences. Lately he has been seen DJing at Berlin’s famous Wilde Renate, Buttons, Ficken3000, Cafe Luzia; Moscow’s Popoff Kitchen; Kazakhstan's ZVUK; Tbilisi’s Khidi, Drama Bar, Success among many others. His upcoming vinyl EP Dark Temple on Rotterdam's Electronic Emergencies label and Clone.nl distribution, is set out to become his biggest project to date.


Red Bull Music Academy: "Arenov makes music with a distinctly Central Asian twist. Imagine Lindstrøm-style space disco wafting through a bazaar from some chewed-up boombox. He’s a lover of classic psychedelic and progressive rock, which you can hear in his winding compositions. Just slightly lo-fi without obscuring his own brilliance, Arenov’s songs sound like the kind of long-lost records from the 80s that DJ Harvey might dig up and throw in a set. Almaty might not have the biggest electronic music scene, but we know that Avivx is definitely one of its best and brightest".
