In Hayk Karoyi’s music, the vibrant palette of the Mediterranean meets the deep layers of Armenian medieval culture. A composer, sound artist, producer, selector, and live performer, as well as a multi-instrumentalist specializing in Armenian woodwinds, Hayk channels his cultural identity intuitively, allowing memory, place, and subconscious expression to shape his sound.
Coming from a mixed East Mediterranean and Armenian heritage, he has never aimed to define himself—or his music—within a single tradition. Instead, his work exists as a continuous fusion: electronic music intertwined with ancient timbres, improvisation, and experimentation.
His work has been presented in clubs, concert spaces, and international festivals across Italy, France, Spain,Germany,Armenia,Georgia,Uzbekistan, and Indonesia.
He has appeared on festival lineups such as Terraforma Simposium (Italy), Stihia Festival (Uzbekistan), O3 Festival (Armenia), Nopa Sound Festival (Armenia),
TKESHI FESTIVAL (GEORGIA),Urvakan Festival (POSTPONED), New East Festival (Barcelona, Spain), Suara Festival (Indonesia), Un Week-end Festival (France).
Performing both live and DJ sets, Hayk’s music is never fixed or complete; it is a living process—constantly evolving, searching, and reshaping itself—driven by curiosity and the desire to discover new forms of expression.
