Chris Avantgarde Announces Debut Album Hyperreal

August 15, 2025 – Visionary electronic artist Chris Avantgarde has revealed his forthcoming debut album Hyperreal, set to arrive in 2026 via his newly launched label imprint of the same name in partnership with boom. records. Marking a key milestone in his career, the first single ‘Energy’ is officially out now.

After a landmark summer that included collaborations with Anyma and Adam Beyer, B2B sets alongside Enrico Sanguiliano and Kevin de Vries, plus major festival slots at Ultra, EDC, and Tomorrowland, ‘Energy’ introduces listeners to the sonic identity of Hyperreal. The album will showcase Chris’ precision-driven sound, merging club dynamics with unexpected detail. Now stepping forward as both artist and label head, Chris is ready to solidify his reputation as one of electronic music’s most distinctive voices.

“Hyperreal marks the start of my label and debut album, merging all my influences and the music I perform into one coherent project. It’s a celebration of versatility and freedom, free from genre limits yet consistent with my personal signature on every track.” – Chris Avantgarde

Already earning strong support from Tiesto, Oliver Heldens, Alesso, Adriatique, Pete Tong, Massano and more, ‘Energy’ is one of this season’s most sought-after IDs. Clocking in at six minutes, the track builds with hypnotic synth layers, sawing basslines, and rolling percussion that deliver a propulsive, high-energy ride. Its sharp topline teases the direction of Hyperreal while cementing Chris’ ability to craft undeniable peak-time weapons.

Born in Germany and now based in London, Chris Avantgarde (Christian Vornweg) is a producer, composer, and DJ who bridges the gap between club culture and cinematic music.

With over a decade of experience as a studio producer, Chris is celebrated for his meticulous craft, technical skill, and wide creative reach.

“Hyperreal will support both rising and established artists, with a no-compromise approach to originality and quality. Through collaborations, live shows, licensing, merchandise, and more, the goal is to highlight what matters most—the music and the emotion—while giving our roster the freedom to experiment and push their creativity further.” – Chris Avantgarde

With past releases on Afterlife, Experts Only, Drumcode, and Dirtybird, Chris now brings his forward-thinking versatility to his own imprint, launched with boom. records.
