Hi, I’m kiskadee - I collect sounds and turn them into bittersweet beats & electronic soundscapes. 

Kiskadee makes emotional electronic music capturing sounds from his surroundings to transform them into uplifting soundscapes that reflect his own experiences. Inspired by the nautical nature of his upbringing on the island of Jersey, he started the kiskadee project during lockdown in 2020 by collecting voice notes from friends and family to flip into bittersweet beats.

Kiskadee has flourished as one of London’s most promising new talents since the launch of his debut EP, Home, in 2021. He has been featured by the likes of Complex and Clash - the latter describing him as a ‘little known tour de-force’; as well as support from BBC Introducing and BBC 6music including his own hour-long mix on the station as part of their ‘Lose Yourself with…’ series alongside his long-standing monthly residency on Voices Radio. He has also launched his live show in 2023 including dates in Germany and support slots at various London venues with an upcoming headline performance in May at NT’s Loft.

The multi-instrumentalist, producer and composer also cut his teeth at Abbey Road and Baltic Studios, where he was fortunate to work alongside producers such as Andrew Wyatt, Kid Harpoon and Stint; and artists such as James Bay, Liam Gallagher and MIA. Now based out of his own studio in East London, he’s had his music used as Asahi, Levis, Sony, Nike and Vogue as well as various film/tv and documentary projects.

Kiskadee spent 2023 working on his debut album, first traveling to Iceland to immerse himself in nature and develop the project. A Room for Breathe, set to drop in early 2024.
