Synikall may not be on your radar – YET, but those in the know see him as one of the most promising hip hop talents to come from the UK underground scene. Described by BBC Introducing as having the angst and energy of early Beastie Boys, Synikall has been steadily carving his own brand of energy-enthused soulful hip hop. Syn cites influences such as Logic, Kaytranada, Anderson Paak, GoldLink and Loyle Carner. He started in music as a DJ in Ayia Napa. After returning to the UK, he began making moves in the local hip hop scene, quickly gaining attention and sharing stages with both Professor Green and Labrinth amongst others. Synikall released a hip hop/house mash-up EP in 2013 via Black Hole Recordings. The EP caught the attention of breakbeat legends The Freestylers who contacted him to feature on their album ‘The Coming Storm’. After the lack of control over his own music with Black Hole, Synikall started his own label named Melee Recording Group. He recruited the likes of The Freestylers, Jagged Hedz and Trademark Blud to feature on the 1st edition of 3 EP's, Evolution Of Grandeur with the first single, Who Got The Buzz, reaching #11 in the Official UK Club Charts in April 2016. The EP itself was released 4th November 2016 alongside the single ‘Illusions Of Grandeur’ feat. Trademark Blud. The 2nd instalment was released in the summer of 2018 and was coupled with a sell-out release party show at the prestigious O2 Academy Birmingham.
