AXDY

Axdy is a UK-based music composer, singer-songwriter, poet, theorist, audio engineer, record producer, film score composer, and model. He is a self-taught artist known for single-handedly compiling his unconventional works and electronically producing them without recording any musical instruments. Also, eluding the necessity of useful and hyped resources. Over his more than 7 years of solo career, he has evolved a diverse musical style that draws on a range of influences and genres spanning electronic, electronica, alternative, avant-garde, new age, minimal, spoken word, industrial, electronic rock, alternative dance, orchestral, noise, etc.

Born and raised in India, Axdy began writing music at age 14. Since his childhood, he had never received any formal musical training and has self-learned every element of music-making affairs. His process involves the usage of synthesizers to write the entire framework of music and then continued by manually programming the complete project on his workstation. All of his works are of avant-garde origin, breaking the traditional approach of making music in many ways. Axdy strictly believes in making distinctive art that can cut through any industry in the world, hence never restricting his works to a specific market or country. Initially, when starting up, due to huge financial crisis, he was not able to set his production studio in the required standard way, because of which he had to self-structure the entire configuration as per his own implemented design. He then gradually trained himself accordingly, got accustomed to this physical layout, and eventually was able to master it. Axdy even edified himself in such a way that he is able to produce the entire output without anybody's intervention.

Axdy's musical career first gained recognition as a music composer/writer/producer in Universal Music Group, India for a string of orchestral/western classical compilations. Soon after this venture, he signed with a series of record labels/distribution partners including Universal Music, Crescendo Music, GRE, Match Point Creations, The Orchard, for all his upcoming releases that ultimately laid the foundation of his musical career as Axdy. Axdy derived the name from a mathematical concept, adopting in a fictional way where A and D stand for his original name initials mapped against both X and Y-axis. The artist also explains the reason why there is no Z-axis because his sounds are extracted electronically i.e. the source of origin is 2D, and not from any live musical instruments which resemble a 3D source.

Axdy then digitally released 34 singles over a span of 5 years, consisting of 28 songs called A Fright Night, Love Propaganda, Bloody Money, Jezebel, Grand Opera, Confession, Crimson Chase, Love Damned You, Harmonics, Eagle, Breeze, Heaven's Guard, Stardom, Shock Therapy, Ecstasy, Revolution, Love will always wonder, Deceased, Mother, Alien Attack, Secret Lover, Moonlight, It's all tainted, Re-animators, Hallelujah, Weirdo, Precious Love, Mercy for a change, and 6 instrumentals named Return Continuum, Money Matters, A Fight, Continuum, The Doorways, Lost World. The singles were released and distributed worldwide and his works soon started circumventing the international market. His music got plugged into several international radio stations predominantly in the UK, Canada, USA, France, Germany, Australia, etc, and also on multiple podcasts. This made Axdy, the first-ever Indian whose works got aired in bulk on mainstream global radio destinations worldwide that feature prominent as well as upcoming international music artists with English being the opted language.

Although Axdy got signed to a couple of record labels in India, he himself is majorly responsible for the complete setup of his released works. He self-learned the international music business and implemented the same in building up his international profile from India itself. As per Axdy, the record labels have granted all kinds of flexibility to him and have shown full support by believing in his workflow potential.

Heavily influenced and obsessed with the classic sounds of the artists/bands such as The Rolling Stones, Iggy Pop, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, David Bowie, Johnny Cash, Neil Young, John Lennon, Jimi Hendrix, Pink Floyd, Dire Straits, Kraftwerk, The Doors, Simon & Garfunkel, Lou Reed, Leonard Cohen, Michael Jackson, The Clash, Queen, U2, New Order, Arcade Fire, Depeche Mode, Lana Del Ray, Adele, Daft Punk, Philip Glass, Massive Attack, Tangerine Dream, etc, Axdy's arcs generally consist of modern instrumentation but with a retro/vintage master output. He says he had always wanted to combine the technology of both eras/timelines and it's enticing he added. Moreover, Axdy also communicates that even though he had taught himself to play multiple musical instruments, they are solely to attain the music writing and production grip. With an exceedingly fundamental setup, he has managed to gear up his music to the extremity mode.
