Artifakts is the multimedia project of producer and visual artist Garret Meyer, an ever-evolving creator known for blurring the boundaries between electronic styles. Founded in 2011, Artifakts has grown beyond the usual lanes of modern electronic music, pairing a forward-thinking sonic palette with a distinct visual identity that Meyer also shapes himself—making the project as much an artistic world as it is a sound. Since 2012, Artifakts has collaborated widely across the indie-electronic community, working with respected musicians, labels, and producers both musically and through design. While his discography often finds a home on study and chill playlists, the live experience is anything but one-note—moving fluidly from contemporary bass music to classic funk grooves and everything in between. Whether performing a live set or stepping behind the decks, Artifakts brings a dynamic, shape-shifting energy built for curious listeners and big-room moments alike.
