Taking inspiration from musicians such as Simeon ten Holt, Erik Satie, John Cage, Thelonious Monk, Gurdjieff/De Hartmann, and Rubén González, Pavlov developed a strong individual style. In addition to composing and performing neoclassical piano music, he is also active in the fields of popular electronic music and jazz. He composes music for theater, television, and film. His albums are published by Universal Music, Donemus, and Sweet Sensation labels.

In May 2023, he was an Artist in Residence at Simeon ten Holt's House in Bergen, The Netherlands.
In 2020, together with members of the music group Sixth June (Lidija Andonov and Laslo Antal), Pavlov established the music label Sweet Sensation.
