Anton Zaslavski, known professionally as Zedd, is a Grammy Award-winning electronic music producer, DJ, and songwriter recognized for his influence in the electronic dance music industry. Zaslavski's work encompasses progressive house, electro, pop, and classical-influenced production. With a background in classical music, he transitioned to drums and performed with the German deathcore band Dioramic before exploring electronic music production. He began releasing his own tracks and remixes, gaining attention on platforms such as Beatport with remixes of songs by artists including Skrillex and Lady Gaga.

Zaslavski achieved mainstream success with his debut album, "Clarity," which featured the single "Stay the Night" with Hayley Williams. The album reached the U.S. Top Ten and earned a Grammy Award for Best Dance Recording. The title track, featuring Foxes, charted in the top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 and topped the US Hot Dance Club Songs chart. His second album, "True Colors," included the hit "I Want You to Know" with Selena Gomez and led the Dance Albums chart. Zaslavski's remix of Lady Gaga's "Born This Way" appeared on the special edition of her studio album, further establishing his reputation in electronic music production.

In addition to his solo work, Zaslavski has collaborated with artists such as Lady Gaga, Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande, Maren Morris, Grey, Alessia Cara, Katy Perry, Martin Garrix, and Griff.
