PAV4N —

PAV4N is the stage name of Pavan Mukhi. He works as a producer and is also credited as a vocalist/rapper. His output sits across bass music, drum and bass and jungle and branches into dub, dubstep, riddim, deathstep, bassline, liquid funk and tekno. He is based between Denver, Colorado and London and is currently located in Denver, United States. Mukhi was born in Dubai of Indian descent and first gained attention as a member of the hip‑hop collective Foreign Beggars. After that period he launched a solo project under the name PAV4N, explicitly blending his hip‑hop vocal approach with bass music and electronic production styles. That transition positioned him to work both as a vocalist/rapper on other artists’ releases and as a producer of his own material. Musically PAV4N foregrounds vocal-led arrangements inside heavy bass frameworks. He frequently pairs MC-style verses and pitched vocal hooks with production that moves between fast drum and bass tempos and halftime, dubstep-rooted drops. Across tracks attributed to him and his credits you can expect pronounced low‑end emphasis, vocal processing used as a melodic element, and arrangements that switch from melodic liquid passages to harder riddim/deathstep style impacts. He operates across tempo and feel: liquid funk–leaning sections where pads and chord movement take prominence, then sharper bass-focused drops that sit in dubstep/riddim territory or pull toward the aggression of deathstep or tekno. On records and credits PAV4N has worked with established bass and electronic artists. He is credited as a vocalist/rapper on releases that include a Monstercat feature with MUZZ, and he has collaborated with Ganja White Night. In 2020 he launched the 4NC¥ record label. Those activities sit alongside his continued production work and vocal features: he writes and records vocal parts and matches them to producer arrangements, and he releases material under the PAV4N name while appearing on other artists’ releases. PAV4N’s concrete connections and influences include his time with Foreign Beggars and his collaborations with MUZZ and Ganja White Night. Outside collaboration credits, his trajectory shows a throughline from hip‑hop vocal practice into contemporary bass music production. He also runs the Yeh Yeh Project, a charity aimed at funding wells in communities that lack access to clean water, a named philanthropic initiative linked to his public profile. He remains active between Denver and London, operating as both a producer and a vocalist/rapper and running the 4NC¥ label since 2020 while maintaining the Yeh Yeh Project charity work.
