Miami’s vibrant nightlife has a new sensation, and his name is ASPEN. This up-and-coming DJ and producer is making waves with his latest single, "Heal Me Now," set to release on July 12, 2024. Following the success of his third single, "Endgame," which featured AWAL’s Liv Hanna, ASPEN has garnered attention from the renowned record label LVLD. "Heal Me Now" marks his inaugural release with the label, and it promises to be a significant milestone in his burgeoning career.
"Heal Me Now" explores the complex dynamics of love and relationships, themes that ASPEN has been meticulously curating through his discography. "Sometimes relationships don’t work, and sometimes they do, but they all have ups and downs," ASPEN explains. This track delves into those inevitable ebbs and flows, focusing on the need for a significant other. By juxtaposing downtempo and up-tempo EDM, ASPEN captures the emotional highs and lows that define relationships. The soothing, mesmerizing vocals blend seamlessly with his immaculate production, creating a summery Chill House record perfect for any occasion.
Miami-based ASPEN is not just a disc jockey and producer; he’s an institution in one of the world’s most electric cities. Known for his dynamic sets and pulse-pounding beats, ASPEN is a perennial favorite at Miami's top nightclubs, where his performances are synonymous with unforgettable nights out. However, ASPEN's influence extends far beyond the local scene. With performances in eight different countries and over fifteen cities worldwide, he has captivated audiences on a global scale. Whether in the heart of Europe or the beaches of Southeast Asia, ASPEN’s music transcends boundaries, making him a beloved figure in the international DJ community.
ASPEN's journey into the world of music is as inspiring as his beats. Self-taught on the piano through YouTube videos, ASPEN always felt a pull towards DJing. It wasn’t until his first Ultra Festival experience, watching Martin Garrix and Tiesto, that he decided to pursue DJing seriously. "I decided that was enough inspiration for me to start DJing, so I bought equipment," he recalls. From there, ASPEN’s passion for creating his own sound set him apart. By blending unique sounds from his favorite DJs with his own additions, he found a signature style that resonates with his growing fan base.
ASPEN’s production process is both meticulous and innovative. "I knew I had to create my own sound to stand out," he says. Drawing samples from niche genres and integrating them into his tracks, ASPEN spends four to five hours a day perfecting his craft. His dedication is evident in every beat, every track. His previous single, "Endgame," featuring Liv Hanna, is a testament to his ability to collaborate and innovate. The song began with a simple Instagram DM to Hanna, and together, they crafted a track that perfectly balanced her voice with his production.
With "Heal Me Now" being his first solo project, ASPEN is set to showcase a new sound that he’s passionate about. The track not only signifies his growth as an artist but also hints at the exciting future ahead. With numerous shows lined up in August, ASPEN is ready to bring his music to even more audiences. His journey from a self-taught pianist to a globally recognized DJ and producer is a story of passion, innovation, and relentless dedication.
