Your Opponent is a Bay Area-based music producer, performer and creator whose sound bridges atmospheric electronica, beat-driven production and immersive live sets. Operating out of San Francisco, Your Opponent not only crafts original tracks but also transparently shares the making-of process through how-to videos and live streams.

With his work, Your Opponent challenges listeners to confront the unexpected: every track is a conversation between rhythm and texture, between the known and the “opponent” within oneself. In the studio, he’s both engineer and artist, layering vocals, synths, samples and programming with an attention to detail born of the streaming-era DIY ethos.

He is also an educator at heart: his Twitch channel acts as a workshop and a stage, where he records, performs and walks audiences through his production workflow in real time.

Whether in the studio or on stage, Your Opponent invites the audience into the process. He believes that understanding how music is made deepens the connection between the listener and the sound, and thus his performances are as much about transparency and exploration as they are about entertainment.
