New York-based electronic producer ASTOR shared his single ‘Stars‘ on September 5th, 2025, via ASTOR Records. The enthralling track premiered on notable electronic music tastemaker EDM Nomad. His previous single ‘Poison’ premiered on the acclaimed Magnetic Magazine, received praise from tastemaker publication NOTION as well as premier online publication YourEDM. ASTOR boasts over 3.2 million streams across platforms and a string of high-profile support slots at NOTO in Philadelphia, and The Summer Club in New York City, where he opened for the likes of Nicky Romero, Hardwell, Sam Feldt, Loud Luxury, and Julian Jordan. Renowned for blending festival-sized energy with emotionally-charged melodies, he has garnered attention from publications such as We Rave You and EDM Nomad.
With ‘Stars’, ASTOR’s momentum continues to ascend, since the success of his breakout 2024 releases‘Fly Alone‘ and ‘Storm‘, as well as 2025’s ‘Holding Tight‘, which marked his debut signing with Revealed Radar, a sub-label of Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings. ‘Stars’ showcases his signature dramatic flair and mainstage appeal, while diving into more vulnerable and emotionally stirring territory, the single is sure to be enjoyed by fans of Martin Garrix, Lost Frequencies and Avicii.
ASTOR’s path to the decks was not exactly typical. A finance professional and political analyst by day, his musical journey began during the pandemic; a personal pivot from structured routine to creative freedom. Influenced by legends like Martin Garrix, Alesso, Third Party, and DubVision, ASTOR crafts EDM soundscapes that marry melodic intricacy with explosive energy. His sound fuses the subtle emotionality of Progressive House with the huge, kinetic energy of Big Room and Electro House, drawing comparisons to acts like his inspirations as well as Avicii and Swedish House Mafia.
‘Stars’ is a masterclass in emotionally resonant EDM, which hits the listener at their core. From the drop of the first note, the track conjures up a deep sense of vulnerability and passion. ‘Stars’ is underscored by grandiose synths, a magnetising melody and intricately layered sound design, all wrapped in sincerity and intention. The powerful vocals tell a story of wanting to take a leap of faith with someone special, while the rich, and atmospheric production drives the poignant vocals to untapped heights.
ASTOR shared: “Stars brought me back to the sound that first made me fall in love with dance music — soaring, euphoric builds balanced with raw, emotional breaks that let the crowd lose themselves in the moment. That kind of roller coaster ride is something I love to create in not only my individual tracks but also my sets.”
