Aexhy

Known for his genre-bending productions and emotionally charged performances, Aexhy has carved out a unique space for himself, where the line between music and personal expression becomes beautifully blurred. His journey, much like the fantastical world he creates through sound, is one of perseverance, deep introspection, and a steadfast belief in the power of music to unite people.

For Aexhy, his role in the music industry resembles the character of Naruto from the anime series of the same name. Aexhy started out misunderstood, often dismissed as someone with ideas too strange or too bold.

“At the beginning, people couldn’t understand what was in my head. They laughed at me and treated me like I was crazy,” he recalls.

But rather than retreating, Aexhy leaned into his perceived eccentricity. Over time, by persistently showcasing his art and honing his craft, he won over the doubters. Much like Naruto’s journey from outcast to hero, Aexhy has built his own following, composed of those who resonate with his “fantastical fairytale worlds.” He sees his role in the music world as a storyteller, crafting a narrative that invites listeners into his universe.

“My story is an honest story, and I think that’s why people around the globe have started believing in me and following my path.”

Aexhy is unafraid to show the world his raw emotions, however complex or difficult they might be. It’s this emotional authenticity that draws people to him and his music, creating a bond between artist and audience that transcends geographical boundaries.Central to Aexhy’s philosophy is the idea that music should serve the people, not the bank account. This belief was instilled in him early on by his father.

My dad told me, ‘You can either change something with your music or make money out of it, but you can’t do both.’”

For Aexhy, the choice was clear. He decided to focus on creating change, and from that moment, the pursuit of financial gain was no longer a factor in his artistic decisions. One of the most profound moments in his career came when he organized his first event in his hometown, a city notorious for stifling new talent and booking the same acts year after year.

“I couldn’t stand it anymore,” Aexhy says, “I stood up for the people of the scene and did my first event, which ended up"

This act of defiance against the status quo was not just a breakthrough for Aexhy but a statement that music should be inclusive, fresh, and for the people. It was the first of many events where he would unite audiences in an experience that felt deeply personal and revolutionary.

“People often told me that my mixes were too difficult to follow because I wasn’t sticking to one genre,” he admits.

“Having the ability to control and mix different genres is the coolest and most interesting thing you can do.”

His genre-blending technique isn’t about showing off—it’s about pushing the boundaries of what music can do and how it can make people feel. By refusing to follow the rules, Aexhy has created a sound that’s entirely his own, one that takes listeners on an unpredictable, emotional journey.

Aexhy’s passion for music extends beyond the digital world into the physical realm, particularly through vinyl. His first vinyl project, produced by the Berlin-based label and collective DEESTRICTED, historically focused on electronic music, dives into harder styles ranging from techno to hardtechno. The project, which took over a year to complete, was a long process but one that taught him the value of patience.

The album concept features Laze and H369, with additional remixes by Paul Seul (co-founder of the former Casual Gabberz collective and 1/2 of Ascendant Vierge), PAX (an eclectic artist from Argentina), and vp allowed (Deestricted co-founder and label’s curator, who in this case offered his own liquid-style interpretation), making the project even more brilliant and valuable.

The mastering is curated by Johannes Geller, aka Punktmidi, and the artwork was created by Giulio Urbini, co-founder and designer of the collective, who led also the entire brand identity project for the label, developing its iconic black, yellow, and white palette.

“Holding that vinyl in my hands for the first time was overwhelming,” he says. “It was one of the best experiences of my career.”

What makes vinyl special for Aexhy is its tactile nature. It’s something you can hold, feel, and physically connect with, in a way that digital music can’t quite replicate. Working on vinyl has also allowed Aexhy to focus more on the artistic process, letting the team handle the technical aspects while he pours his heart into the music and artwork.

While Aexhy doesn’t have any vinyl releases planned in the near future, his creative spirit shows no signs of slowing down. He’s currently working on an album with Sonny Smiles, where they’ve managed to create what he describes as a “new genre.” This project, along with several upcoming collaborations and features, promises to be another emotional rollercoaster for fans of his deeply personal and raw music.

“I don’t care if something goes viral, I just want to create music.”

For him, music is a form of therapy, a way to express emotions too complex for words. And it’s this relentless focus on authenticity that continues to resonate with listeners, ensuring that Aexhy’s fantastical world will keep expanding, one genre-blending, heart-wrenching track at a time.
