DJ and TikTok sensation Ian Asher plays a mashup night at Ductwork Houston, promoted by Disco Presents.
Ian Asher plays Ductwork on Saturday, October 17, at 9 PM. If you've come across his name on TikTok, you've probably seen the mashups that made him a thing: he takes songs from completely different eras and genres and blends them into a single track. One of his better-known ones runs Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me," Michael Jackson's "Thriller," and Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know" all in one go, which gives you a good sense of the range he works with. He's born in California, born January 21, 2001, and he's built his following on that kind of cross-genre mixing.
That's the core of what he does — taking tracks that don't seem to belong together and finding a way to make them fit. It's a style that leans on familiarity, since the songs themselves are well-known, but the way he puts them together is where the actual work is. The set is promoted by Disco Presents, and the night is for ages 18 and over.
