CH4YN

CH4YN is an artist driven by the desire to constantly push the boundaries of electronic pop music. With his signature style—a combination of danceable electro beats, catchy pop hooks, trance influences, and modern UK sounds—he has made a name for himself as one of Germany’s most exciting emerging talents. At just 23 years old, CH4YN has captivated millions with his music, earning a reputation as a must-watch artist. Now, with a freshly signed deal at Sony Music, he embarks on a new chapter in his career.

Born and raised in Düsseldorf as Marco Krstic, CH4YN’s musical journey started early. At the age of six, he learned classical guitar, and by his teenage years, he was already composing his own songs. His move into music production at 19 signaled a shift toward an increasingly electronic sound, blending synthetic and organic elements into a seamless hybrid that has made him a standout act in the German dance and pop scene. With millions of streams, over 1.4 million monthly listeners on Spotify, 61.4k TikTok followers, and 6.4k Instagram subscribers, CH4YN has built a devoted fan base.

Music has always been a refuge for CH4YN. He describes his tracks as an escape from the rigid structures of life, particularly his time in the military, where he often felt alone and lost. His music became his outlet, a way to break free and express his creativity. This duality—between the synthetic and the organic, the structured and the free—is what drives his unique sound, which combines club-ready techno vibes with pop sensibility.

A self-taught, DIY artist, CH4YN takes pride in overseeing every aspect of his music, from songwriting to production. His tracks often begin with analog methods, like guitar, before evolving into complex, multi-layered compositions. His latest single, “Too Lost To Be Found,” represents the next phase in his career, a collaboration with Greek-American singer Barbara Argyrou that reflects the feelings of being lost and overwhelmed—a sentiment shared by many of his generation.

The song captures a pivotal time in CH4YN’s life, as he made the bold decision to leave behind a secure future and focus entirely on his music. This new creative freedom brought with it both excitement and a sense of being adrift, emotions that “Too Lost To Be Found” encapsulates. With bittersweet vocals, driving beats, and a floating melody, the track is a reflection of CH4YN’s personal journey.

As CH4YN looks ahead, he is preparing to release more music with Sony Music, including his debut EP, and planning his first live performances. With his innovative approach to music and a growing fan base, CH4YN is poised to continue making waves in the electronic pop scene.
