He has managed to amass 200,000 Facebook fans in a very short period of time, with 50k coming in the past month. Now it is true that all numbers should be taken with a grain of salt because you can buy just about everything in the online space from Facebook fans, to youtube and soundcloud plays or comments to even Beatport position, yet he is the real deal and building a loyal following that are craving new music all the time. Building on that momentum, he has caught the eye of the ultimate tastemaker around, Diplo. It is no secret that we look to Diplo & Friends for some of the best mixes to hit the airwaves and this week he delivers again. The producer, DJ, performer, lady killer, tastemaker and all around boss has a penchant for picking some of the best up-and-comers before they blow up internationally. With Kygo he shows that he is ahead of the curve and always looking to support the next generation of promising producers. With his first ever live radio mix, the pressure was on Kygo to deliver a lasting first impression to millions of listeners across the UK and the world. He has already developed a passionate fan base across the internet, but the radio is a whole different beast. The hour long mix is perfect for any day time activities or pre-games in Miami or for those not lucky enough to be down there, the tropical grooves will let you imagine a sunnier, warmer place where you there isn’t a worry in the world. This mix has lasting value, so don’t expect to be playing this only just once over the next several months.
