Kylyt

"Prodigy" say some, "I do music ツ" says Kylyt - and has been since he was four years old. Having just turned 17, the multi-talented artist has been making a name for himself for almost two years with DIY clips for Insta and TikTok, in which he conjures up beats from flipping book pages, clicking pens, half-full water bottles and crackling chip bags, and flips songs by Justin Bieber or Halsey on acoustic guitar and piano more uniquely than anyone of his generation.

A talent that does not come by chance. Born in 2006 in Giessen, the passion for music runs in the family. Father and grandma play the piano, the parents listen to Queen, Michael Jackson and the Beatles. Kylyt first learns piano, then guitar, then drums. At the age of 9, he got his first computer, complete with DAW and MIDI keyboard. Between trial & error and tutorials, the first tracks are created - and they are meant to be heard.

So Kylyt sends some of them out into the world in random DMs - and catches the attention of Music Executive, Charlie Walk, the former president of the legendary labels Republic and Epic and finally Wolfgang Boss and his label B1. DIY reworks turn into official remixes and a deal with Electric Feel and finally Sony Music Germany's label B1 Recordings.
