Monster Block Party Artist Profile: Garmiani
Swedish DJ and producer Garmiani is far from a new fling in the music industry. Though he’s gone by different aliases, the Stockholm-based musician has been involved with music his entire life having promoted clubs, toured as a live performing artist, worked at major record labels Sony and Universal, has won music awards and has held #1 chart positions. So why the rebirth? With love for a new sound, he decided it was time to take his music in a different direction – this time using his real name.
Born Jiar Garmiani, in 2012 the Monster Block Party artist relaunched his career with the “debut” release “In Front Of Your Eyes.” Combining emotional vocals and melodies with an electric high-energy drop, “In Front Of Your Eyes” was an instant hit, reaching #1 on Trackitdown’s Top 100 house chart. Garmiani followed the success of his debut with free download, “Now That We Found Love,†which was a hot edit to Heavy D and The Boyz’s classic 1991 anthem.
Starting 2013 out with a bang, Garmiani’s single “The City Is Mine†with Salvatore Ganacci was featured on the the iconic Marquee nightlife brandcompilation album and was supported by Markus Schulz, Gareth Emery and Avicii. It was followed by Garmiani’s remix of Arash & Sean Paul’s hit single “She Makes Me Go†which went #1 on the German Dance Chart.
This multi-aliased Swedish sensation likes to build you up and chill you out with his productions. His latest double A-side single “Rumble†& “Dance Motherfucker†was signed by Steve Aoki to his Dim Mak Records as soon as he heard them. The ground shaking EP, ‘Rumble’, was released in late May 2013.
His career has since skyrocketed to international levels after he gained the support from artists like David Guetta, Hardwell, Afrojack and obviously, Steve Aoki. His EP Rumble, released on Dim Mak Records, shows us how he likes to build his audience up and chill you out with his productions. His latest singles “Rumble” and “Dance Motherfucker” were signed by Steve Aoki to his Dim Mak imprint almost instantaneously. Now officially a part of the Dim Mak roster, Garmiani is powered by his need to release more banging singles. We can’t wait to watch Garmiani in front of our eyes when he performs in the gulch for Nashville’s Monster Block Party on October 26th. Grab your tickets today before it’s too late!
