Just who is Asadinho? After almost two decades of DJing across the globe, running a label, and producing hundreds of releases under various monikers, Asadinho may seem to be a fresh name to the scene, but the man behind it certainly is no novice. His deep, sophisticated, party-savvy sets have been tickling feet and minds alike since the mid-nineties, having DJed in hundreds of clubs over 40 countries across 5 continents to crowds of up to 20,000 people.

Having rebranded his label with slick new artwork and a new shortened name, RvS, it did not take long for labels to prick up their ears to his updated aesthetic, with remixes wrapped up of artists such as Lana del Rey, Doc Martin, Phoenix, Onur Ozman and many more. His remix of Lana del Rey was in the Beatport Top 100 Deep House Chart for over 4 months and has had more than a million listens online. Recent supporters include Seth Troxler, Tensnake, MANDY, Aeroplane, Maceo Plex, Doc Martin, Damian Lazarus, Laura Jones, DJ T, Kate Simko, The Glimmer Twins, Mark Farina, Terry Francis, and Alex Gopher plus many more.

Not forgetting that Asadinho has to date sold well over 100,000 units of his work, his experience in production can be heard in every release, his extensive tour history has taught him a thing or two about the dancefloor, straddling the lines between the contemporary and the old school in his addictive journey sets.

Asadinho



https://www.xlr8r.com/podcasts/2016/02/podcast-426-asadinho/

Asadinho, whose identity, until now has remained a little obscure, is the latest chosen alias of DJ-producer, Asad Rizvi. The name is unlikely to be as instantly recognizable as some of those selected to submit their mix to the XLR8R podcast series, but the London-based artist, who has been silently plying his trade for the best part of two decades, has never been one to actively promote himself via the plentiful channels available today. His most prominent release under this latest moniker came in the form of a Lana Del Rey remix—but his other works, which have been presented under a variety of different monikers and via imprints including OmGlobal Underground and Loveslap, are reflective of someone with an undeniable talent for production and great love for doing so. Accompanying this is his DJing, an endeavor that has seen him travel the world over and visit some of the world's best clubs including Fabric (London), XOYO (London), Stereo (Montreal), and The End Up & Mighty (San Francisco)—in part due to the assortment of genres and influences presented throughout all of his sets. Having seen Rizvi perform on several occasions along America's West Coast, we invited him back to capture this sonic diversity in a mix. Listening back to the recording, it's fair to say he achieved just this.
