Ian Asher is one of the fastest growing DJs and electronic acts in the world right now, but it all began in a warehouse in Orange County. When TikTok began, Ian was the first DJ/ producer to put up big numbers on the platform doing mashups. Now, six years and countless viral moments later, he has had 5 Spotify Top 50 records and in the past 9 months a relentless output of original edits, remixes, and mashups with over 12 million monthly listeners on Spotify, and 1,500,000 streams per day. “My sound is exaggerated, pitched-up, and in-your-face. If I listen to the first two seconds of a tune and it doesn’t sound huge, I throw it out. It needs to be a brand-new experience, so I’ll add in more speed, stutter sounds, and ear candy,” said Asher. Growing up in Southern, CA, Ian Asher’s interest in music began at 10 years old, when he discovered Avicii, Skrillex and Calvin Harris on YouTube …but after a family trip to Las Vegas he saw the faces of his favorite artists on the billboards and asked his parents for a DJ controller as a Christmas present. Rather than obsess over video games, he spent all of his time learning the ins and outs of Logic. At 13-years-old, he landed his first “residency” as a DJ at the local trampoline park, not knowing that he’d go on to have a residency at Zouk in Vegas. At the same time, he uploaded tracks to Soundcloud, played high school parties, and upped his game as a producer. During senior year, he caught the attention of Swedish producer Peter Swartling who invited him to Sweden for sessions. Using money saved from his work as a DJ, he flew to the UK where a planned two-week trip turned into three months. While there, he produced “B[OO]M-BOXX” for ITZY’s blockbuster debut LP Crazy in Love—which bowed in the Top 15 of the Billboard 200 and at #1 on the Top Independent Albums Chart. Upon returning to the States, he enrolled at the University of California Irvine, and began to embrace TikTok, often posting up to five times per day during Covid. He reinvented Labrinth’s Euphoria staple “Still Don’t Know My Name” garnering billions of plays. Shortly thereafter he signed with top managers Milk & Honey Music + Sports and agents Spin Artist Agency who would guide and help bring his recording and touring career to a different level. Ian quickly hit the road doing 100+ dates per year and building a real touring business. He knew that the live experience was going to be a major part of his artistry and not just making records at home.… Actuellement #3 620 au classement mondial BookedDJ.
