VI.BE

Kyrill is an indietronica artist from Amsterdam based in Brussels and Paris. His sound is best described as dark, moody, and melancholic — perfect for those who want to dance in the depths of emotion.

Upbeat enough to get you moving, but not quite party music, Kyrill's tracks capture the restless energy and existential angst of modern society with a sound inspired by Thom Yorke, Moderat, James Blake, The Blaze, Gidge and Polo & Pan.

Rather than sticking to predefined 'pop' formats, Kyrill is constantly searching for new ways to push the boundaries of songwriting, experimenting with slow buildups and minimalistic instrumental hooks.

Together with producer and live performer Sasja Maekelberg, Kyrill is bringing a unique flavor to the electronic scene by using live percussion, guitar, evocative vocals, and stunning AI-generated visuals to turn each performance into a unique immersive experience.

In 2023, Kyrill joined Volta Brussels as an artist-in-resident, and with support from Paris-based Groover Obsessions and represented by Coda Management, the artist began growing his presence in the European indie scene, participating in Soundtrack (Vi.be) and playing at numerous showcase events, as well as releasing numerous singles which were added to thousands of playlists, including Spotify's coveted New Music Fridays and received favorable reviews from Notion, Music Crowns, La Vague Parallele and other press.

In 2024, the artist broke through with the single 'Cyclone', a collaboration with Montee, which garnered close to a million streams and a steady 30,000 monthly listeners. Other collaborations are in the pipeline for 2025 with Angelina Beroe, Paul Yellow, and Thais.
