ABOUT AZARI & III:
AZARI & III-producers/musicians Dinamo Azari and Alixander III and vocalists Fritz Helder andStarving Yet Full-create a unique blend of classic house revivalism and moody electronics with dark yet hooky vocal choruses and analog-thick rhythms. Heralded by tastemaker outlets (Pitchfork, XLR8R, NME)and mainstream media (BBC, The Guardian) alike, their self-titled debut album (AZARI & III, originally released in 2011) delivers a defining sound that relishes in its references while maintaining a futuristic perspective. The album contains an individual classic-future feel with trademark, lush synthesizer textures, biting soulful choruses and ominous overtones. Establishing themselves as one of the breakout artists of 2011, AZARI & III originally formed in 2008 in the burgeoning Toronto electronic music scene and made their worldwide debut with the release of their early singles "Hungry for the Power" and "Reckless (With Your Love)," both of which erupted a storm of awe in the underground music scene and global electronic community. Known for their astounding live shows, AZARI & III have performed at numerous world-renowned festivals, including Glastonbury, Sonar and Lovebox.
