About Me


Aram has avoided the spotlight in the years gone by. He’s not one to talk about his music, but has instead decided to focus entirely on the craft of creating something special from the records he finds and plays.
Aram’s style is hard to pin down, but those around him say it sits somewhere between deep house and techno. In his own words he sums it up as "music with emotion."
Over the years, Aram has held residencies at Australia’s most important clubs and parties. In Melbourne he has played all over including Honkytonks, Revolver, Clandestine, Blow Your Own Way, Pretty Simple and festivals like Hot BBQ, Summerdayze and Sunshine People. In Sydney at Lost Baggage, Bread & Butter at Ladylux and Spice. On the Gold Coast at Elsewhere, Empire in Brisbane and Sugar in Adelaide. He has also made it as far a field as Europe, to play at the Nouveau Casino in Paris.
Aram’s residency at Honkytonks, the now extinct Melbourne nightspot voted Top 5 clubs in the world by New York's V Magazine, has been his greatest accolade so far. The club’s open-minded attitude allowed him to explore and refine his hypnotic sound and play many of his individual support sets with guest including Damian Lazarus, Joris Voorn, Mathew Jonson, Matthew Dear, Tim Paris, Aril Brikha, Claude Von Stroke, Jef K, Oliver Hunterman and Rex the Dog to name a few. He also compiled and mixed the Honkytonks compilation titled ‘Honkytonks: The Last Dance’, which made its way into all good record stores.
And yet Aram still feels this is all just the beginning, as his working on productions, just started a new weekly residency at Sorry Grandma! in Melbourne and planning another tour through Europe.
