Zedd, the DJ and music producer best known for his work with Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, and Ariana Grande, has relisted his Beverly Hills house. According to the Wall Street Journal, the musician (born Anton Zaslavski) is asking $23 million for the home he purchased in 2018 for $16 million.
Anton Zaslavski — better known to millions of electronic music fans as Zedd — is doubling down on his efforts to unload the contemporary Benedict Canyon home he’s owned since 2018 he bought from Joe Jonas last year for a cool $15 million. The Russian-German DJ/record producer has relisted his luxurious spec mansion in the foothills high above Beverly Hills with a new team of realtors for a tad under $23 million — or $3.5 million less than he was asking for the place last summer — after nine months on the market with no takers.
Zedd Relists Eye-Catching Beverly Hills Mansion for $23 Million
Who is Zedd?
Anton Zaslavski, best known by his stage name “Zedd,” is a Russian–German record producer, DJ, and multi-instrument performer. His strong electronic music is his most well-known genre. Both of his parents were musicians and taught him classical music so that he may follow in their footsteps. However, the French electronic duo ‘Justice’ had a big influence on him, and he honed his skills by remixing other artists on ‘Cubase.’ His debut track, ‘Spectrum,’ which was published through ‘Interscope Records,’ went to number one on the ‘Billboard Hot Dance Club Songs’ chart, instantly making him a celebrity. His debut studio album, ‘Clarity,’ was released shortly after. The song ‘Clarity’ reached number 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 and went on to sell over two million copies, making it the most-played song on American radio at the time. ‘True Colors,’ his second studio album, will be released soon. He released his single ‘I Want You to Know’ with Selena Gomez in February 2015, which was nominated for the ‘Teen Choice Awards’ for ‘Choice Party Song.’ He was dating the vocalist at the time the song was written. Zedd is currently single after they choose to split ways. He’s also a Grammy winner for ‘Best Dance Recording.’ His admirers are eagerly anticipating his upcoming release.
Childhood and Adolescence
Anton Zaslavski was born to Jewish parents in Saratov Oblast, Russia, on September 2, 1989. When he was four years old, his family relocated to Germany. He was reared with his two brothers, Arkadi and Daniel, in Kaiserslautern. Igor Zaslavski, his father, is a schoolteacher and guitarist, and Marina Vladimirovna, his mother, is a piano instructor.
When he was four years old, his mother taught him how to play the piano. By the age of 12, he had mastered classical music and the drums. He started his career as a drummer with the metal fusion band ‘Dioramic’ in 2002. ‘Lifeforce Records’ had signed the band to a contract. He began focusing on the metallic heavy electronic genre after being influenced by the French electronic duo ‘Justice.’
Career
During his career, Zaslavski went by the stage name “Zedd” and wrote songs for the band “Dioramic.” He was a member of the team until 2010. In 2010, he created a name for himself by winning two ‘Beatport’ remix competitions. ‘The Anthem,’ his first original release, charted in the top 20 on the ‘Beatport Electro’ charts.
He quit ‘Dioramic’ to pursue his own remixing on ‘Cubase.’ On the special edition of Lady Gaga’s studio album, his 2011 remix of the song “Born This Way” was included alongside the original version.
Zedd’s debut single, ‘Spectrum,’ was released by ‘Interscope Records’ in 2012. The song peaked at number one on Billboard’s Hot Dance Club Songs list. The song ‘Beauty and a Beat,’ which was produced for Justin Bieber’s third studio album, ‘Believe,’ came next.
In October 2012, he released his debut studio album, ‘Clarity,’ which featured the single ‘Spectrum’ as its lead single. The third single from the album, ‘Clarity,’ was released in February 2013. In September 2013, the song was in the top ten on the ‘Billboard Hot 100,’ selling over two million downloads and becoming the most-played song on American radio. It was given the “platinum” designation. Soon after, Zedd embarked on his first globe tour, which took him to all five continents.
After that, he produced the track ‘Heaven’ for Namie Amuro’s album ‘Feel.’ He also released the tune “Stay the Night,” which featured Hayley Williams and reached number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified “platinum.”
In July 2014, his song ‘Break Free,’ which he co-wrote with singer Ariana Grande, achieved #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #1 on the ‘Hot Dance/Electronic Songs’ list. In the same year, it was nominated for a ‘Teen Choice Award’ in the ‘Break-Up Song’ category.
‘True Colors,’ his second studio album, was released in 2015. In the same year, he released the single ‘I Want You to Know,’ which he co-wrote with Selena Gomez. The song was nominated for a ‘Teen Choice Award’ in the ‘Party Song’ category and charted at number 17 on the ‘Billboard Hot 100’.
In 2015, he stole the hearts of his fans by performing live at the ‘CMT Music Awards’ ceremony. In that same year, he also performed at the ‘Counter Point Music and Arts Festival’ and the ‘Spring Awakening Festival.’
In 2016, he collaborated with Aloe Blacc on the tune “Candyman.” In the same year, his collaboration with Hailee Steinfeld, ‘Starving,’ reached number five on the UK Singles list. He also released a remix of DJ Snake and Justin Bieber’s hit single “Let Me Love You.” He collaborated with ‘Riot Games’ on the song ‘Ignite’ for the e-sports competition ‘League of Legends.’
His next project was a song he wrote with Alessia Cara called “Stay,” which peaked at number 28 on the Billboard Hot 100 in February 2017. In July 2017, he released his single ‘Get Low,’ which he co-wrote with Liam Payne.
In January 2018, his current single, ‘The Middle,’ featuring Maren Morris and ‘Grey,’ hit number one on the ‘Billboard Pop Songs’ radio chart and number five on the ‘Billboard Hot 100’ list. In April 2018, he also released a video for the ‘National Geographic’ miniseries of the same name, titled ‘One Strange Rock.’
Now let’s take a look at his Eye-Catching Beverly Hills Mansion for $23 Million
The two-story home, which sits beyond gates at the end of a remote private cul-de-sac just below Mulholland Drive, was purchased by Zedd for $16 million just over four years ago, shortly after construction was completed. The futuristic edifice, which boasts five bedrooms and nine baths in 11,000 square feet of open-concept living space embellished with walls of glass affording panoramic ocean and mountain vistas, was subsequently upgraded with his own personalized touches and enhancements. A custom-designed soundproof movie theater with a 4K laser projector, a billiard room, and an indoor-outdoor gym are among the opulent amenities.
The atrium, which features a massive water feature and goes down into a great space with soaring ceilings, is one of the attractions. A sleekly designed eat-in kitchen links to a fireplace living room with a pair of built-in Korean barbeque charcoal grills and high-end appliances. A prep kitchen/pantry connects to a brick-walled dining area with a designer light fixture suspended from the wood-plank ceiling.
The creature pleasures continue upstairs, where a lavish master retreat takes up the whole second level and includes a large terrace, a linear brick fireplace, and two walk-in closets. A luxurious bathroom includes dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a steam shower. Downstairs, there are four more guest suites, three of which have access to the pool area.
The beautiful grounds cover little over three acres and include a fire pit, an outdoor kitchen flanked by an al fresco eating area, an infinity-edge pool and spa, and a large roof deck. A four-car garage and plenty of off-street parking for at least a dozen vehicles are also available.
With a net worth of $45 million, the Grammy-winning DJ has worked with Lady Gaga, Selena Gomez, Katy Perry, Alessia Cara, Shawn Mendes, and, most recently, Disclosure and Martin Garrix. The 32-year-old also maintains a busy touring schedule, with his one-day “Zedd in the Park” concert returning to the Los Angeles Historic Park on July 8.
