Here's your big chance to spend an intimate evening with Canadian producer Myagi at Alia just as he's set to become huge with his debut artist album '3 Years of Sunrise' coming out in the next month.
Myagi's Melbourne shows are never the same, showcasing not only his great producing skills but also his skills as a top class performer and a master of truly live Ableton sets. His first show at Gimme a Break in 2006 was one of the standout breaks gigs of the year. Later in the year he played Earthcore to great plaudits. Last year saw him wow the crowd at Lucky Break playing before Phil Hartnoll.
Over the years Myagi's music has evolved and jumped genres: his sets have gone from mostly big beat to breaks and house, now settling into a comfortable mashup that can only be described as purely his own - house, electro, breakbeat and hard edged funk, butting up against rock and hip hop; a conglomeration of sounds that is more than the sum of its parts. Simply put, Myagi's music demolishes crowds.

Myagi Bio
Myagi aka Andrew Mavor has, in a short time, gone from being a self taught bedroom producer to being an a-list international party rocker. The past three years have seen him play sunrise sets in Australia, packed clubs in the metropolises of China, rocking boat parties in the old heart of Paris, nude beaches in California and a slew of even crazier settings.
He has done remixes for indie bands and hip hop stars, for legends like The Crystal Method and Phil Hartnoll of Orbital, for up and coming artists and for stalwarts of the underground. His influence over the sound of underground club music in North America has been felt, but rarely as much there as overseas, where Myagi's hectic touring schedule has helped him spread his sound to the corners of the globe and earned him a devoted fan base in many music communities.
2007 was a big year for Andrew Mavor. As Myagi, his remix of Crystal Method's "High Roller" for the bands 10 year anniversary re-release of their seminal album "Vegas" got rave reviews. He toured constantly, playing more shows in a six month period than most DJ's play in their career, and logging more time on planes than the average flight attendant.
After nearly 40 tracks (both originals and remixes) released worldwide, it was about time to consider the inevitable album, and 2008 finds Myagi teaming up with Freddy Fresh and his label Howlin to release '3 Years Of Sunrise', as much a journey into melodic, cinematic sounds as a collection of dancefloor smashers.
