Career

In 2016, Pan released “Platinum” with X&G, and collaborated with ABRA on “Give It to Ya” and Dumbfoundead on “Banned from the Motherland” with Jay Park, Simon Dominic, and G2. In 2018, he released “Wait for Me” and “Paradise” with X&G, and “Voom,” a minimalist, groovy track noted for its catchy melody.[4] His 2018 EP The World Within included “Undefeated,” and he performed at 88rising’s Head in the Clouds Festival. Other festival appearances include Coachella, HARD Summer, Shambhala & more.
2019–present: Collaborations and festival performances
In 2019, Pan collaborated with Dylan Brady on the album This Car Needs Some Wheels, releasing tracks like “Save The World,” “Ready To Go,” and “Brain” with Dylan Brady and Lewis Grant. He worked with Medasin and X&G on “No Face” and featured on “4 MIND” with Dog Blood, Skrillex, Boys Noize, and X&G. In 2021, he released “Supersonic (My Existence)” with Skrillex, Noisia, and Dylan Brady, which appeared on Skrillex’s 2023 album Quest for Fire, nominated for Best Dance/Electronic Album at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards in 2024.
