Dutch breakout Dyro emerged in 2013 as one of the scene’s hottest new stars. Debuting at #30 in the DJ Mag Top 100 poll, he became the youngest ‘Highest New Entry’ artist to ever appear in the definitive DJ poll. Known for driving bass lines, enchanting melodies and highly charged drops he has seamlessly made the transition from bedroom musician to renowned international DJ/Producer. Having snatched the highest new entry accolade in the 2013 poll Dyro has surpassed all expectations with his rapid ascent into the upper reaches of the dance scene. Previously tipped by the likes of World #1 DJ Hardwell, Laidback Luke, and Dada Life as their ‘Breakthrough Artist of 2012’, the 21 year old star has lived up to the praise bestowed upon him and cemented his standing with seminal releases like his first Beatport # 1 record alongside Hardwell for ‘Never Say Goodbye’, as well as an extended streak of visibility on the global clubbing circuit.
With his music a constant fixture in the sets of DJs from Tiësto and Steve Angello to Afrojack and Sander van Doorn, Dyro’s career has been on an upward trajectory that has seen him achieve so much in a short space of time; it is easy to be left astonished at his growing list of accomplishments. His first encroachment into the world of dance music came in 2011 when Dyro followed the well trodden path of honing the skills of his craft and reaching out to artists’ he idolised to get his first break. In many cases the first artists he contacted and sent his early work to would go on to become future collaborators. One of those he connected with was a true influencer and personal hero – Hardwell. In a short time Dyro had his first EP released on Hardwell’s Revealed Recordings. The release of ‘Daftastic’ was a watermark moment for Dyro, putting his record in the bags of esteemed djs such as David Guetta, Dada Life, Laidback Luke and of course Hardwell. ‘Daftastic’ elevated him into the next stratosphere and set him on track for future success.
2013 has seen Dyro consolidate his early triumph. His initial flurry of releases and remix work gained him recognition from the scene. At the turn of the year Dyro joined label mates Hardwell and Dannic on the now legendary Revealed Recordings Canadian Bus Tour. Lining up each night alongside the other Revealed boys Dyro played to sell out crowds across Canada, where he featured at some of the country’s finest clubs from New City Gas in Montreal to The Guvernment in Toronto. Following this with a stint in Miami for WMC, Dyro confirmed to the industry with a sequence of exclusive sets that the sky was the limit for the gifted youngster from Holland. When looking for endorsements of this hyperbole you can get no more impressive than when Hardwell called him on stage during his set at Ultra Music Festival Miami to give the world premiere of their collaboration track, ‘Never Say Goodbye’ – the single went on to become one of the most demanded tracks from the festival. Since its release it has amassed in excess of 3 million views on YouTube and has unequivocally become not only one of the biggest EDM tracks of the summer, but the entire year. Dyro’s presence in the scene was later reiterated when Tiësto, also invited Dyro on stage to play the world exclusive of their new collaboration ‘Paradise’ together, this track went on to have one of the highest rotations on Sirius XM that summer and reaching #6 in the Beatport top ten.
