Avision

Fortunate to grow up around the rich club culture of NYC and influenced by the sounds around him, Avision now finds himself helping to usher in a new wave of techno for the New York scene.

His debut album“In My Mind” has been released on Maceo Plex’s Ellum Audio imprint, which DJ Mag UK has called “an impressive body of work stuffed full of melodic techno and maximal house”. Avision (real name Anthony Cardinale) started young on the turntables at the age of 12, gained his first residency at 15, and hasn’t looked back since. Recent touring highlights include gigs at The Brooklyn Mirage & Time Warp in NYC, Off Sonar in Barcelona, EDC Las Vegas, Space Miami, Watergate Berlin and Stereo Montreal.

Around the same time as his DJ career started, he began to hone his production skills in the studio and has developed a distinctly New York-flavored techno & house sound that he’s now bringing to the world. Over the last number of years, he’s had releases on a range of influential labels; from Ellum and Drumcode to Cocoon & Hardgroove to name a few. Recently, Avision has teamed up with his mentor Victor Calderone and relaunched the imprint MATTER+.

Together, the two artists will collaborate and curate both the record label & event concept with their groove-based techno & house style. Avision has also started the Ground Rule Collective, an outlet which brings together all of the different aspects of his creative passions: music, events, clothing, art, and food-all driven by New York influence. The philosophy of Ground Rule will mirror the development of Anthony as Avision,“staying true to the music, the art form and myself issomething I always want to push forward.
