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."

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. Vlastaras' track "Surface" was popularized by YouTube introduction video templates, entertainment videos by various YouTube personalities and the Need for Speed gameplay demo at the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2015, gaining over 50 million views on YouTube as of 30 July 2018. Other tracks including "Ctrl Alt Destruction", "Boundless" and "Break Them" are also frequently used in various YouTube videos. In September 2016, Aero Chord released his first EP, The Love & Hate EP, containing 5 songs, one of which, The 90s, made the Monstercat BO:2016 list. After just under 3 years, Aerochord released his 2nd and final EP with Monstercat, The Sound EP, containing 4 songs, with features of Nevve and Bianca. In early 2020, Vlastaras released the singles & EP "Technique", "Anthem", "Lambo", "Grind" with his new label "Aero Records". In 2020, he was dropped by Monstercat after British future house vocalist MYLK accused him of sexual assault in 2014 on her social media account. In 2021–23, Aero Chord continues to release with Aero Records the EP "V8" and singles such as "Ancients", "love u" and "One More Time". In October and November 2023, Vlastaras released two singles, "Awake" and "Thunder", with VANA Records.
