His skillful and ambitious production style gives birth to an eclectic and unique confluence of sounds that transport the listener to an alternate reality, one where time stands stills and the only thing that exists is music…and the freedom to enjoy it to the fullest.

In turn, an increasing number of club promoters, booking agents and music industry insiders have actively and ambitiously pursued Komashov in an effort to secure the rising star´s presence at their events; But he´s very selective regarding the events where he makes an appearance as he believes in giving 100% of himself to the crowd whenever and wherever he performs live, for this and many more reasons, his reputation amongst true electronic music connoisseurs is unrivaled, and his is the type of special talent that simply cannot be ignored.

Komashov recently granted Elite Music News an in-depth interview, during which he discussed his origins, sources of musical inspiration and some of his future plans. Here´s what he told us:
How did you first fall in love with music and decided to make it your career?
I was raised all my life around music, my parents are big fans of music, so they used to listen to music all the time on the TV and on the radio in the car; So basically music was always there and a part of my life. The point in time where I looked at a DJ and thought to myself that this is something that I would love to be some day is when I heard Tiësto playing in one of his big shows in my country about 20 years ago. He was so connected with the crowd and the crowd was going crazy to his tunes, it felt like magic.
Do you have any favorite cities or countries where you have performed and why?
I love to play everywhere in the world to be honest, but especially I love to perform in London. The crowd in London really appreciate me as an artist and my music, I really feel an amazing vibe when I perform there every time.
How would you describe your musical style and can you share with our readers the names of other producers, artists and DJ’s that have inspired you?
My musical style is complex and it includes a few genres that I love: 1. progressive afro house 2. progressive afro tech 3. melodic house 4. disco. I get some inspiration for my music from: Coldplay, U2, Space Motion, Notre Dame, Calussa, Blondish.
What can Komashov’s fans expect in 2023? Are you working on new projects?
I´m currently working on a lot of new projects and much more is planned in the future to come. I have a few new tunes coming out in December 2022 and January 2023. The next few projects that I´m finishing right now will be coming out right after them.
If you could collaborate with any artist, alive or dead, from the present or the past…who would you choose?
If I had the option to work with any artist, it would definitely be Coldplay!
