Blawan

Lauded electronic producer Blawan has consistently redefined his sound and perfected his craft. Emerging from the post-dubstep scene, he achieved early success with releases such as 2011's "Getting Me Down," a white-label remix of a Brandy hit. He then switched to a highly intense, gritty brand of techno, growing darker and more sinister with each release. His hair-raising 2012 track "Why They Hide Their Bodies Under My Garage" achieved popularity beyond the dance music sphere, and Blawan was regarded as one of the leaders of the industrial techno revival. Switching his focus to modular synthesizers, he issued several EPs, each of which sounded different from the last, making his full-length debut in 2018 with Wet Will Always Dry. In addition to work with Pariah under the duo name Karenn, he released increasingly experimental solo EPs like 2021's Soft Waahls and 2023's Dismantled into Juice.
