INZO INTRODUCES “MIRRORVERSE,” THE PORTAL TO HIS UPCOMING EP AND 2026 TOUR

THE FULL EP ARRIVES THIS SPRING, EXPANDING THE NARRATIVE BEHIND HIS NEXT CREATIVE ERA

Through his label Local Void, future bass visionary INZO opens the first chapter of a new era with “Mirrorverse,” the cinematic title track guiding the story of his forthcoming EP and tour. The single signals a renewed clarity in his creative vision. With this release INZO begins to reveal the thematic framework of the larger project, inviting listeners into a realm shaped by reflection, duality, and the unseen forces that shape our inner and outer worlds.

“Mirrorverse” opens with crystalline production that gradually crescendos. It weaves luminous melodies to create a landscape that feels vast, emotional, and alive. The track moves toward a sweeping climax where radiant synths cascade over a steady and resonant foundation. It carries the emotional DNA that defines INZO’s work and places it within a wider universe that feels nostalgic, forward facing, and entirely its own.

The track hints at the release of the full EP, arriving this spring, offering a glimpse of what lies ahead. It’s an early preview of the universe INZO will bring to the stage on his sweeping 2026 headline tour, visiting Los Angeles, New York City, Chicago, Red Rocks Amphitheater, and more, serving as his last tour for a while.

“Mirrorverse” stands as both a self contained experience and a guiding star for what comes next. It signals where INZO is headed and offers the first clear look at the dimension he is preparing to open.

QUOTE FROM INZO

“Thematically, this song was subconsciously influenced by the idea that our external reality is a direct reflection of our internal world—our thoughts, inspirations and ideas manifesting outward like a mirror. With that came a song that represents what I think is an inherent core sound for me. A form of DNA that has authenticity manifested, if you will. Drawing back to the theme that if you’re being authentic, authenticity will reflect. ”

Chicago-born, Denver-based producer NZO creates genre-defying electronic music that blends intricate melodies, dynamic rhythms, and otherworldly sound design. With a background in classical piano, INZO has crafted a signature style that is both captivating and emotive, earning millions of streams and a devoted global following. His breakout track “Overthinker” and subsequent genre-bending releases have solidified his reputation as a boundary-pushing artist. Live, INZO seamlessly fuses electronic, ambient, and bass elements, delivering immersive performances that invite listeners to explore, dream, and feel. As he continues to evolve, INZO is poised to be a leading force in the next wave of electronic music.

AVAION DRIVES ANALOGUE WARMTH AND EMOTIONAL EUPHORIA INTO SOPHOMORE ALBUM ‘TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY’

Music for dancing or for dreaming, depending how you’re feeling, has long been the mantra of electronic artist AVAION. His records land just as powerfully in a sweat-soaked club as they do in solitary headphone moments. With second album, TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY, the multi-platinum German producer amplifies that duality across fifteen tracks, using healing and happiness sound frequencies in every chord progression to, quite literally, make people happy.

Drawing the album title from a street side voice note captured by AVAION in Berlin where he overheard two strangers converse on why they do what they do, coming to the simple, yet powerful, reasoning of “to make people happy.” A sentiment that for AVAION, resonates deepest on the dancefloor, and for the listener, is a blank canvas to write their own story.

Opening track ‘WAY YOU SMILE’ is the testament to this. Beginning with airy vocals and a subdued, weightless bassline, before breaking into a rapid, kinetic drop built for peak-time release. It’s a record for both emotional release and euphoric rapture, all experienced in just three minutes.

The overall sonic identity of the album is not confined to one genre. ‘COLORS’ treads the space in between deep house and electro-pop, whilst ‘NEED ME’ flirts with liquid UKG, and darker, minimal techno inspires the ambience of ‘BERLIN.’ All tied together with that signature AVAION sound stamp.

Stand-out releases from the last twelve months also feature amongst the trove of unreleased gems. Including viral Afro-House hit ‘WACUKA’ with Kenyan songstress Sofiya Nzau which has over 100 million worldwide streams to date, sultry single ‘SLOWLY’ with RANI, and fan-demanded ID ‘HOLD ME AGAIN’.

Sampled drums, lush chord stacks, and hand-shaped basslines from analogue hardware give warmth and texture to the entire track list, fused with future-facing sound design and modern processing techniques for maximum emotional impact.

Where 2024 debut album Selfreflection was about defining his sound, TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY is AVAION’s artistic evolution in motion. Shaped by two sold-out headline tours across Europe performed in his signature 360° live show format, it’s these core memory moments of body and soul feedback only live performance can offer, that AVAION channels into the album. Describing the crowd as “co-composers of the album’s DNA.”

The first chance for fans to experience the entirety of the album live, comes at the official release party at Festsaal Kreuzberg, Berlin, Friday 23rd January 2026. Before rolling out the full TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY Tour 2026 in April, visiting top European cities including Munich, Amsterdam, Hamburg, Paris, Vienna, and Warsaw.

TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY, AVAION’s new album, is out on Sony Music.
