Only 22 years old, LESKY has already
created his own soundscape fusing
mellow Neo Soul keys, crisp drums and
samples flipped beyond recognition.
LESKY is a child of the Limewire era.
He spent the last decade strolling
through the world wide web producing
his beats often with nothing more than
a demolished laptop. His influences
reach from A Tribe Called Quest
to Young Thug and he cringes when
people label his music as Boom-Bap.
LESKY does not want
to give you Dilla reinterpretations,
nor trap tunes with stock drums, he
just wants to give you some fresh sound
for 2020 and beyond.
Even though LESKY is a young gun, he
has been hustling on the fringes of the
German beat scene already for a while
now. Born and raised in Leipzig, he
initially cracked Fruity Loops to
produce some beats to rap over, back
when he was 12 years old. As LESKY
quickly developed a music taste beyond
orthodox rap music, he gradually
departed from 16 bars over chipmunk
soul samples. Especially the then
upcoming Low End Theory movement and
genre bending artists like Hudson
Mohawke or Flying Lotus, gave LESKYÆs
approach on music a new prospect. That
was when he decided to pursue his lane
as a producer.
You may know him from his first project
that gained a broader recognition
together with
his then neighbour, the Flemish beat
maker and trumpeter Phlocalyst. Their
EP "Serendipity" quickly became an
insider tip and has gained 5 million
streams on Spotify up to this day.
Since then LESKY has released singles
on well-known labels like Dust
Collectors and
Golden Ticket Tapes.
After spending most of his life in
Leipzig, LESKY moved to Cologne in 2019
to link up with other producers and get
his name out. Stay tuned!
