Timour Nigolian, known professionally as Mirlaqi, is a Swiss electronic musician celebrated for his "spatial house from disco planet" sound—a fusion of deep musicality and compelling grooves. Transitioning from keyboard and saxophone roles in rock and reggae bands, he embraced electronic music, crafting live sets that blend house, disco, techno, jazz, and global rhythms. Mirlaqi has graced stages at esteemed venues and festivals, including the Montreux Jazz Festival in 2019 and 2022, Electron Festival in 2019, and Festi'Neuch in 2022. His discography features three vinyl EPs, notably "Système EP" (2019) on Chicago's Star Creature label, "Beyond the Sea of Sand" (2020) with Zurich's Hommes du Monde, and "Traveling Beyond Moving" (2020) on Berlin's Foxy Red Recordings. His evolving sound continues to captivate audiences worldwide. ([montreuxjazzfestival.com](https://www.montreuxjazzfestival.com/en/artist/mirlaqi/?utm_source=openai))
