    their own biography

    the whole biography
    David “DAVI” Khanjian grew up listening to classic sounds of Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin and the likes. Discovering his passion for music from an early age, he was subsequently admitted to the Vocal Department of Yerevan Komitas State Conservatory. David's immigration to Los Angeles expanded his horizons in music. Focusing on production of genre defying electronic music, David’s sound can best be described as deeply melodic journey into the mind that can leave you whiplashed much like a rollercoaster. As the vibrant strings of acoustic guitar resonate over thick bass lines, you can feel a warm glow in your heart, interrupted only by an occasional conga riff. His dj sets leave one standing drenched in sweat, completely exhausted from the satisfaction of losing yourself in the dark beats and the lush melodies. With releases on Crosstown Rebels, All Day I Dream, Rebellion, his name is now instantly recognizable among the world of spinning producers who globe trot his compositions to be dropped on every conceivable audience.
    Their RA profile lists Crosstown Rebels, Treibstoff Recordings, Toolroom Records, Kindisch Records and 6 more.
