Bio
Tampa-based producer and instrumental artist Sonic Skillz brings his nostalgic touch to contemporary hip-hop, R&B, and electronic music.
Sonic Skillz began creating and releasing his sounds after discovering FL Studio in his teens. By age 20, he founded Urbanizm Music, his own record label. Since then, the producer has worked with notable independent hip-hop artists like Mega Ran and Skyzoo, and had viral tracks, including his tribute song to wrestling star/actress Sasha Banks.
Born and raised in New York, Sonic Skillz credits the city’s soundscape for influencing his creative direction – from Nintendo chiptunes that gave way to more intricate electronic music to hearing iconic hip-hop and R&B singles blasting from car speakers as they passed by. His key inspirations include hip-hop’s ’90s ‘golden era’ and classic video game scores (Sonic the Hedgehog, Street Fighter, Streets of Rage), as well as Michael Jackson, Dr. Dre, Tee Lopes, Yuzo Koshiro, and Jim Johnston.
Blending past and present in his unique production style, Sonic Skillz is now in the studio cooking up new music.
