ÆSUZ, a rising artist in the ever-evolving world of electronic and pop music, is a name you’ll likely be hearing more of. This talented 25-year-old music producer from Dresden has recently unveiled his latest album, “JOURNEY,” which has resonated deeply with audiences thanks to its distinctive sound and rich emotional layers. Released on May 31, the album stretches just over 41 minutes and comprises 13 tracks that masterfully mix the nostalgic vibes of classic electronic music with a fresh, modern twist.
ÆSUZ’s path in music began in the shadows as a ghost producer, a role that polished his talents and nurtured a keen sense of sound innovation. This groundwork was laid during his early years, where he started playing the accordion at five. His musical interests evolved over time, leading him to electronic music production by the age of 13.
The album “JOURNEY” symbolizes much more than just music; it’s a narrative of ÆSUZ’s personal and artistic evolution.

ÆSUZ hopes the album conveys a spectrum of emotions—from joy to pain—mirroring life’s complex journeys. Each track reflects his growth and experiences, making “JOURNEY” a deeply personal and emotionally rich work that resonates with listeners on multiple levels.
Right from the opening track “Sad And Blue,” the album sets a reflective yet engaging tone. Other highlights include “Closer,” with its vintage and minor synthwave vibes, and “Until Midnight,” with its captivating melody. “Babe Why” also stands out for its perfect fusion of synths and passionate vocals, showcasing ÆSUZ’s ability to blend electronic beats with deep, resonant voices. Each track on the album demonstrates his skillful production and emotional depth, making “JOURNEY” a compelling listen for fans of electronic and pop music. ÆSUZ’s innovative sound, songwriting, and heartfelt lyrics create a unique and immersive musical experience.
ÆSUZ draws inspiration from the melodic styles of Avicii, noting the late artist’s influence on his own music and stage name. ÆSUZ—similar in sound to ‘Jesus’—reflects a play on spiritual and profound connotations, contrasting deep themes of lore and faith, akin to the symbolism in Avicii’s name.
As he steps further into the spotlight, ÆSUZ is also venturing into new musical territories. He’s currently collaborating on an 80s disco beat track, influenced by icons like Giorgio Moroder and Purple Disco Machine, highlighting his versatility and eagerness to experiment with different genres.
For fans eager for more, ÆSUZ promises that new music is on the horizon. “JOURNEY” is also available as a CD for those who prefer a tangible piece of his music.
“JOURNEY” stands as a testament to ÆSUZ’s commitment to his music and his desire to connect with listeners on a meaningful level. With each beat, he invites his audience into a world where electronic music meets raw emotion, crafting an experience that’s as introspective as it is exhilarating.
