History
Vlastaras began his career in 2011. In his interview in 2013 with Your EDM, he spoke on the origins of the name Aero Chord, stating "Well, my name wasn't something easy to decide on. It took me at least 2 months of looking through name generators and combining their outputs endlessly until something good and meaningful and unique came up. When I saw Aero Chord it just clicked I guess."
Speaking on the beginning of his career, he stated "I started producing at the age of 14 I think, inspired by a cousin of mine who was making Goa and psy-trance back then and who helped me through my first steps with Reason. I've never DJ'ed much in my life before Aero Chord, I just knew I have to go through productions first to gain some recognition so I saw no point in it."
Career
Vlastaras has released his music on Monstercat, High Intensity, Trap and Bass and other record labels.
Having performed in festivals including Spring Awakening and Carnival of Bass, he started his first North America tour in June 2015.
