Chris Avantgarde continues to shape the world of his forthcoming debut album Hyperreal with the release of “Obsessed,” out now via his newly launched Hyperreal imprint. The single follows earlier cuts ‘The Other Side,’ ‘Down For The Night,’ ‘Dale,’ and ‘Energy,’ further deepening the project’s evolving emotional and sonic narrative.
On “Obsessed,” Chris Avantgarde leans into a relentless house-driven pulse, built on tightly wound percussion and a rolling low-end designed for late-night dancefloors. The track unfolds with calculated precision, pairing hypnotic rhythmic layers with a refined melodic topline that elevates without diluting its intensity. Its lyrical hook taps into a sense of spiraling fixation, balancing tension between desire and compulsion—making it one of the more striking, club-ready moments within the Hyperreal universe.
Born Christian Vornweg in Germany and now based in London, Chris Avantgarde has carved out a distinctive creative identity that bridges classical composition with modern electronic production. A classically and jazz-trained multi-instrumentalist, his work carries both structural precision and emotional weight, extending beyond club spaces into film, television, fashion, and gaming. His versatility has earned him accolades including an ASCAP Synch of the Year Award, reinforcing his status as one of the scene’s most multifaceted artists.
Following a standout 2025 that included major performances at Ultra Music Festival, EDC, and Tomorrowland, along with back-to-back sets alongside Adam Beyer, Enrico Sangiuliano, Kevin de Vries, and Massano, Chris Avantgarde is set to return to North America with an extensive run of headline dates. The tour includes stops in Miami for Miami Music Week, as well as Los Angeles, San Francisco, Denver, Seattle, Austin, and Toronto.
With “Obsessed” now out, Chris Avantgarde continues to refine and expand the Hyperreal concept—blending technical mastery with raw emotion as anticipation builds for his debut full-length project.
