Spotlight 4: Sarey Savy x VYG 

Sarey Savy
Personal experiences led this Cambodian singer-songwriter and producer to write songs that intersect with love and mental health. From Seattle, this singer is known for his versatility, authenticity, and lyrical content – not confining himself by genre. Savy is on the verge of becoming an international breakout star. Having been featured on Spotify’s International editorial playlists from Japan to Australia encompassing lists like “New Music Wednesday“, “元気Booster“, and “Happy Stroll.” His feature on Games (1 million+ streams) with Italian powerhouse Chris River & Pards solidified his abilities not just as a vocalist who is capable of dominating the House genre, but also as a songwriter who can captivate listeners. The multifaceted artist has charted on the “iTunes Top 100 Electronic Charts” in Japan, “iTunes Dance Charts” in numerous countries (including #2 in Hong Kong), Deezer Iceland and Malta (on both the “dance” and “electro” charts in both countries) respectively. Ba Da Da played heavily on rotation on Antenna 5 in Macedonia, ultimately peaking at #3. His music has been supported by m2o, Radio 105, R3HAB, Lost Frequencies, Nicky Romero, Merk & Kremont, Cloudkid, Ultra Music, ChillYourMind, House Nation, and more. His single “You Fake AF” which was also produced by Savy was featured on Fresh Finds R&B. His music creates a niche of its own while bringing an early 2000’s nostalgia of music. Dive in and hear for yourself.

VYG
VYG is a relatively newcomer to the EDM scene. Their energetic sound, powerful basses and fresh synths make you want to dance. With big support on their previous projects VYG is ready to bring you the best tunes of today and tomorrow. United by Music.

The trio started playing together in May, 2022 and recorded their first EP in July. #rustfolk
