Aaron Winter: Based in London, Canada, Aaron Winter is a compelling talent in the Southwestern Ontario electronic music scene, renowned for delivering a high energy, emotion driven immersive invigorating vibe. His signature style is a fusion of melodic house, progressive house, and melodic techno, best defined by its Melodic, Electric, and Pulsating core. This sound is often compared to the expansive, emotive work of industry heavyweights like Tinlicker, Eric Prydz, and Cassian. Aaron's musical journey began in 2010 when he DJ'd indie/alternative dance music and ran a globally recognized website dedicated to supporting emerging music acts. After years of championing the scene, his motivation, driven by a consistent lifelong love for emotionally charged electronic music, compelled him to become a contributing artist himself in 2018. Since then, his sets have been driven by the thrill of taking audiences on immersive musical journeys that leave them thirsting for more. This passion and hard work earned him the "Best Club DJ" award from the 2022 Forest City London Music Awards. Aaron has established his presence at festivals and venues from Toronto to Windsor, performing and sharing bills with icons like Markus Schulz, Cassian, Cristoph, Dosem, and Eli & Fur.

2026 is focused on continuing to deliver high-octane, must-see performances across the region. Whether commanding a festival stage or an intimate club booth, Aaron remains dedicated to the art of the set, chasing that singular, collective rush only found on a packed dance floor. For him, the energy of a live crowd is not just an audience; it is the vital force that fuels every beat.
