Vivek—Mervin is an Indian music directing duo consisting of Vivek Siva and Mervin Solomon. The duo have worked together on Tamil language films, including Vadacurry (2014), Pugazh (2016) and Dora (2017).

Vivek Siva trained as a classical musician and performed with numerous bands during his school and college days. Vivek later worked as a music programmer and sound engineer for Anirudh Ravichander on all his early projects. Mervin Solomon had worked as a music producer from Chennai, and scored music for albums in gospel and classical genres. He also freelanced worked as a programmer in various Tamil movie projects. The pair had met after Mervin replaced Anirudh in their band Zinx, following Anriudh's busy schedule as a result of film work. For their debut project, Vadacurry (2014), they were picked after Yuvan Shankar Raja had opted out of the film. Anirudh had recommended Siva's name to the film's producer Dayanidhi Alagiri, following which Vivek and his working partner Mervin were signed on.

In their second project, Pugazh (2016), the duo brought in Hindi singer Arijit Singh for his first Tamil song.
