ArtSaves is a music producer and DJ, known for his unpredictable, ominous sound which ventures into the experimental territory. His music career started in Tehran in 2012, where nightclubs are prohibited by law and his performances remained within the confines of undisclosed parties. The producer recently released his latest album ‘Home Is Where the Hatred Is’ under his own imprint Kopi / ک پ ی. His music compasses a melange of ambient and industrial techno ambiguously drawing inspiration from his Iranian heritage while targeting the concepts of identity, authenticity and belonging. As an alumnus of the Red Bull Music Academy in Berlin 2018, ArtSaves was mentored by musical luminaries during his residency. Shifting between rhythmically dismal delicate beats to hardcore techno, he prefers to be indefinable but leaves the dance floor pulsating.
