History

Slaven grew up on the Isle of Bute and attended secondary school in Rothesay. According to Slaven, he initially listened to a mixture of jazz and indie rock, but developed a love for dance music during a trip to Ibiza when he was 17.[1] He subsequently studied music at the University of Aberdeen, where he found an interest in composing dance music.[2]

In 2012, Slaven was signed to Hervé's label Cheap Thrills.[3] Slaven started releasing on the label Toolroom in 2019.[citation needed]

Influences

[edit | edit source]

Slaven cites Jimi Hendrix as an influence growing up, stating "the way he played the guitar like it was connected to his body and mind I found totally mesmerising". When discovering electronic music, Slaven took inspiration from Boys Noize, The Chemical Brothers, and Daft Punk.[4]
