Music Talk 013 - Avision Chats How to Get Signed & Music Production
New school techno pioneer Avision released his debut album ‘In My Mind’ on Ellum Audio at the end of 2021. Avision grew up around the rich club culture of New York City and is now part of a new wave of artists defining the contemporary techno landscape. In just a couple of years, the American has become an absolute mainstay on labels like Drumcode, Machine, and We Are The Brave. His hard-hitting productions have found their way into the record bags of tastemakers like Adam Beyer, Maceo Plex and Chris Liebing. At the same time, he has been featured everywhere, from The Brooklyn Mirage and Time Warp in New York to festivals like Elrow, The BPM Festival, Electric Daisy Carnival and Dockyards. Now he offers up ‘In My Mind’, a widescreen artistic statement across 13 immersive tracks. ‘In My Mind’ is an accomplished and adventurous album that takes melodic techno in bold new directions. I chatted to him on Twitch in an in-depth interview about the album, his biggest influences as an artist, growing up in New York, techno music, sampling as a producer, his passions around baseball and we listened to loads of the album and chatted about how the tracks were produced.
