Visiting various festivals and parties at home and abroad, he acquired the necessary creativity to finally organize the first public event in his home town after smaller private parties in 2009. 10 years later it was time to start the association “artem sonitus” together with some friends.

At the age of 19, he discovered DJing and producing electronic music through a good friend. Since then, everything has taken its course and he has played countless gigs at different locations in and around Salzburg. A big highlight was the Electric Love Festival 2015, where he was played in the Circus Club.
He has also attended a lot of festivals and parties at home and abroad and this has only strengthened his love for music and for DJing. In 2024, he lauched his own minimal house event series in Viena, called “vertigo vienna”.
For Bon Ajvar there is only one rule when DJing : he wants to bring as much emotion into his sets as possible!
