Parisian producer Alexis Duvivier makes festival-ready trap and EDM as
Aazar, in addition to less brash material as part of the group
Point Point. The artist has remixed or collaborated with the likes of
DJ Snake,
Skrillex,
Yellow Claw, and
the Chainsmokers.
Aazar first became known for "Shake," a 2014 collaboration with trap star
UZ. The aggressive solo track "Rundat" was released by Mad Decent imprint Jeffree's the same year. Following
Aazar and
DJ Snake's successful remix of
Skrillex's "Dirty Vibe," OWSLA released
Contrastive Focus Reduplication, the 2015 debut EP by
Point Point, initially a quartet consisting of
Aazar,
Nömak, Devoted to God, and L'Homme Aux 4 Lettres. Also in 2015,
Aazar released "Pop Dat" (with
4B) and remixed
Dillon Francis &
DJ Snake's "Get Low."
Point Point's Family Portrait EP appeared in 2016, and
Aazar released "Gyal" and "Ravage" (with Bellorum) the same year. 2017 brought
Aazar's "Booty Time" single (with
Cesqeaux) and remixes for
Yellow Claw and
J Balvin.
Aazar and
Bellecour's bassline house throwback "Da Vinci" appeared in 2018, the same year the Parisian collaborated with
the Chainsmokers ("Siren") and remixed
David Guetta and
Sia's single "Flames." In 2019,
Aazar remixed
Tiësto and
Micky Blue's "Diamonds," in addition to releasing "Diva," a collaboration with
Swae Lee and
Tove Lo. ~ Paul Simpson
