Jasper Helderman (born January 27, 1987),^[1] better known by his stage name Alvaro (stylized as ΛLVΛRO), is a Dutch record producer, songwriter, and DJ. His music is mostly electro house and progressive house. He is best known for his single "Welcome to the Jungle" (featuring Mercer and Lil Jon), which reached #3 on the Beatport main chart in June 2013 on Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings. He also produced "The Underground" on Spinnin' Records and more recently "Guest List" on Tiësto's label Musical Freedom, all of which ended up in the top 5 of the Beatport top 100.^[2]

Alvaro released tracks on labels such as Spinnin' Records, Revealed Recordings, and Musical Freedom.

He has played in the biggest clubs around the world and festivals like EDC Las Vegas, Electric Zoo NY, Ultra Music Festival, and Tomorrowland. He also worked with artists like MIA, Diplo, Major Lazer, will.i.am, Far East Movement, and Lil Jon.

Helderman was born in Almere, Netherlands. When he was 18 years old, he began planning and designing websites. As a teenager, he discovered his passion for DJing while doing graphic design for festivals. Afterwards, he quickly went from editing after movies to producing his own songs.^[3]

His first residency was at Club Hardersplaza in Harderwijk in 2008. In October 2009, he released his remix of the song “Took the Night” by Chelley on Spinnin' Records which turned out to be his breakthrough track in the Netherlands as well as other parts of the world. Thereafter, he toured Brazil, Morocco, Australia, and Asia.

Since his release of “Make the Crowd Go” on Spinnin' Records, his music was picked up by artists like Tiësto and Hardwell. In January 2013, he was part of the Tiësto Club Live College invasion alongside Tiësto, Tommy Trash, and Quintino. In that same year, he worked together with Tiësto and Quintino to produce the anthem of Ultra Music Festival.
