Born and raised in Pärnu, Estonia, Pais studied classical piano growing up and discovered synthesizers as a teenager, which led to his interest in dance music. He began producing his own music around 2004, eventually catching the ear of Swedish DJ Avicii, who signed him to his label Le7els Records in 2012. That same year, Pais headlined the Creamfields Dance Music Festival in the UK, further increasing his profile. His remix of Avicii's "Silhouettes" also reached number 20 on the Digital Top 100 Dance Remix chart in 2012.

Early life He attended music school from an early age and aspired to become a pianist. A friend made him listen to some famous dance tracks on cassette tape, and he fell in love with electronic dance music, turning into a producer when he was 19 years old. He initially produced songs in the trance genre under the name "DNS Project", but then moved to his current house genre. He is influenced by classical composers such as German composer Hans Zimmer and John Williams, as well as electronic artists such as Daft Punk, and his songs incorporate many elements. His singles and remixes have amassed over 1.4 billion total streams on YouTube and Spotify.
