You read that right. This guy has a hell of a lot of remixes to his name, 30 to be precise, and he was only old enough to drink by 2013. He started making his own music and beats in 2009, by the age of 17. He tested the waters by tentatively sending his work out to producers the world over.
He was rewarded by being signed to Flashover Recordings, a label owned by Ferry Corsten, a Dutch DJ of no small repute. This led to Audien’s first single released in the same year as well entitled “Rise and Shine”. He then released 16 non-album singles over the course of 2010 and 2011 to complement his 19 remixes over the same period of time.
Clearly this was an artist as prolific as he was talented. He was recognised for this too, with tracks of his appearing on compilations curated by Tiesto, Armin Van Buuren and Above & Beyond. The latter would also premier a track of Audien’s called “Wayfarer” as the very first song played on their radio show Group Therapy, very high praise indeed.
The best part of this is that in the grand scheme of things Audien has barely begun his career. He’s accomplished what most could hardly dream of given a whole lifetime to work and he’s still only just getting started. This will be a very exciting ride from here on out, and any electronica fan would do well to join.
Electronic Dance Music is at the forefront of the charts with artists such as Avicii, Calvin Harris and Zedd tearing it up using their arsenal of beats and hooks that without fail sells music. Lets talk about Audien, the progressive house producer and musician who is also making some pretty big waves in the scene at the moment with some of the remixes and singles that he has been putting out as of late.
Punters appear to have been with him from the beginning, some sporting Audien shirts upon entrance whilst others mosey around at the merchandise stand. Everyone looks ready to dance this evening as the house lights go down with the flicker of strobes as the main event, Audien walks out on stage to the helm of his setup with consists of decks a mixer, a keyboard and a laptop. He opens with one of his most current releases from this year, a song called “Hindsight”. In hindsight, I knew full well that this would be an experience but had no idea it would be to the caliber of this EDM odyssey that is.
