The Artist

Paris-based ALVA DJ has been shaping dancefloors since 2018. Through residencies at standout Paris venues — Autobahn, Deflower, Freshtouch, Cova Club and Jangal — he forged a distinctive open-format approach that blends hip-hop, afrobeats, house and global club sounds.

His bookings include Bagatelle in Paris and international shows at MAD Lausanne, Theatro Marrakech, Chrystie Cannes, NAO Pool Club, Mirage Marbella, Birdy Brussels, Azar Club and Hypnotize Fest.

He has played Monaco GP week and Paris Fashion Week, providing sets for major international artists including Travis Scott, Quavo, Offset, Gunna, Rich The Kid, Busta Rhymes, Metro Boomin, Don Toliver, Tyga and DJ Khaled — as well as exclusive after-parties for Kanye West (Vulture), Drake, Jay-Z and The Weeknd.

The signature
Genuine, contagious energy. An inspired selecta. A deep connection with the crowd.

Behind every set lies the same intent: turning every night into a true experience.

Paris Residencies

Five Paris rooms built the ALVA sound — weekly nights where open format isn't a genre, it's the brief: read the floor, move between hip-hop, afro and house, and never let the energy drop.
