Azooland, the house music project led by Israeli producer Azooland (Israel Azulay), continues to carve out a powerful presence in the global electronic music scene. In an open and energetic conversation at the Nexus Lounge, Azooland sat down with Nexus Radio to reflect on his journey, creative philosophy, and what keeps him grounded amid a fast-moving industry.
For Azooland, coming together with fellow artists and industry peers is about far more than performances or releases—it’s about connection. He described the experience as a kind of reunion, a place where long-standing relationships are renewed and new ones are formed. That sense of community has played a major role in shaping both his outlook and his music, reinforcing why collaboration and shared energy remain central to his process.
Since breaking through in 2019 with “Break It Down” featuring Kristianex on Spinnin’ Records, Azooland’s trajectory has been steadily rising. His catalog has surpassed 10 million Spotify streams, with releases supported by influential labels such as Hexagon Records and Protocol Recordings. Each milestone reflects his consistency and ability to balance underground credibility with broad dancefloor appeal.
During the interview, Azooland highlighted recent highlights, including a summer-defining release with JAMA on Hexagon. He spoke with pride about how those moments affirm his creative instincts, especially when tracks resonate far beyond the studio. Major performances across Europe, including appearances at large-scale festivals, have further reinforced his place among today’s house music innovators.
Despite a packed release schedule and constant travel, Azooland emphasized the importance of staying true to himself to avoid burnout. Rather than chasing trends, he focuses on maintaining a clear sense of identity. Knowing who he is as an artist, he explained, allows everything else—growth, momentum, and inspiration—to fall into place naturally.
