I’m Aryan Parikh, a Mumbai-born music enthusiast navigating DJing, music production, and artist development. I’m currently expanding my horizons with a MA in Music Business at ICMP in London while pursuing electronic music production, and I’m also studying Health Promotion and Disease Prevention at USC, which fuels my passion for creative entrepreneurship. Alongside, I’ve interned with Klub Record and Universal Music Group, where I contributed to A&R, branding campaigns, and live-release promotion, while building a network of fellow artists and industry partners. My journey has taken me from Mumbai clubs to international classrooms, and I’m releasing music like Closer on Room 82 Records. I thrive on collaborating across disciplines, combining business acumen with hands-on music-making to bring fresh sounds to the floor. I’m excited to keep growing as a DJ/producer and to help artists find their voice and reach.
