Can U Put Me On Guestlist?

In this episode of Can U Put Me On Guestlist?, I sit down with Chris Avantgarde to talk about why we’re officially in the genre-blending era of dance music.From being “too techno for the commercial crowd and too commercial for the techno crowd” to playing the Las Vegas Sphere, Chris opens up about finding creative freedom beyond genre labels, navigating rejection, and trusting instinct over perfection.We talk about his journey from Germany to London, working with Anyma and Afterlife, producing music for clubs versus festivals, and building a parallel career in film, TV, and gaming with projects for Netflix, Amazon, and Call of Duty. Chris also shares the thinking behind Hyperreal, his approach to evolving as an artist, and why genre lines matter less than ever.This episode is about identity, authenticity, and making music that feels real - without fitting into a box.
