Perth DJ Andrei Mazandarani, known for work associated with “Death Disco” at Amplifier/Capitol, dies after a battle with cancer, according to multiple Australian outlets. His death is described as sudden and has shocked fans and others in the local music community, including people who reportedly did not know he was unwell.
Both sources report that his illness was aggressive, and that his passing follows treatment over a period of time. Coverage focuses on his profile as a popular figure in Perth’s nightlife and DJ scene, while noting that the news comes unexpectedly for many. The outlets do not provide additional details about the timeline of the illness or the circumstances of his death beyond the fact that it follows cancer.
While the two reports share the same core information, they emphasize slightly different ways the shock has been felt—through comments about people being unaware of his condition—without presenting competing accounts of his career or the cause of death.
