Arthur Ashin (born 20 April 1982), better known by his stage name Autre Ne Veut, is an American singer-songwriter and musician from New York City.

The name Autre Ne Veut is taken from an inscription in French on a 15th-century British dress ornament that is stored at The Cloisters and is translated to English as "I want no other."

Ashin graduated from Hampshire College, where he lived with Daniel Lopatin (later of Oneohtrix Point Never).

Ashin's debut album and the subsequent "Body EP" were recorded at home.

Ashin's second album, Anxiety, released in 2013, was self-produced as well, but this time it was recorded in a studio with contributions from Ford & Lopatin.Anxiety was met with critical acclaim, including Best New Music from Pitchfork.Gorilla vs. Bear named Anxiety as "Album of Year (so far)" in June 2013.

In July 2013, Ashin released a single titled "On & On" as part of the Adult Swim Summer Singles series.
