Burgeoning breakthrough star Avantika makes her debut on the revered Berlin-based label Get Physical Music with her bold and genre-defying Moody Koyal EP. Known for championing global talent and shaping the sound of contemporary club culture, Get Physical provides the perfect platform for Avantika’s visionary sound.
With this striking two-track release, the rising Indian artist fuses traditional influences with modern club energy crafting a distinctive voice that’s both deeply rooted and forward-thinking. Avantika’s artistic identity is a rich tapestry of contrasts: classical Indian training meets a rock vocal background, layered with tribal, Afro, Latin, Middle Eastern, and Indian electronic textures.
Her hybrid live DJ sets, where she sings while performing, have already captivated audiences worldwide. As the first Indian DJ to play at Exit Festival and with standout sets across many countries and continents, Avantika is fast becoming one of the most exciting new voices in global dance music.
Her DJ sets themselves are also powerful and uniquely groove-driven, with a distinct energy, and emotional depth that reflect her musical identity.
Opening track Maro Dum reimagines the iconic Dum Maro Dum as a deep, seductive club cut. Dreamlike vocals float above pulsating rhythms and swirling synths, creating a hypnotic blend that pays homage to the past while boldly pushing into new sonic territory.
Title track Moody Koyal is a fierce, sensory tribute to India’s wildlife. Tribal percussion, eerie Koyal birdsong, growling basslines, and snippets of monkey chatter combine with edgy synth stabs to create a raw, electrifying jungle journey. Primal yet futuristic, the track is a vivid soundscape that commands attention.
With Moody Koyal, Avantika doesn’t just make a statement, she tells a story. One that crosses borders, blends traditions, and invites listeners into a space where emotion and rhythm coexist.
Rooted in India but resonating far beyond, Avantika is a sonic shapeshifter. Her fearless fusion of genres, languages, and lived experience makes her not just a producer to watch, but a transformative force in electronic music, one who turns dancefloors into spaces for release, connection, and cultural celebration.
