Sean Lyles

Sean Lyles embraces the potential of music as nourishment and relishes in the process of painting a colorful picture with sound. His speciality lies in harnessing deep, pulsating basslines and crisp harmonics to enhance flow and immersion in any given space.

Shaped by constant travel from his formative years to now, his resonance with various pockets of culture has imprinted on his sound signature through unique melodies and soulful beats. Free from an affinity to a particular time period or genre, Sean tunes into his feelings to search for the records that are rich in emotion and saturated with soul. Sourcing music from the hole in the wall shops in New York and beyond, he seeks inspiration from every corner of his travels.

Behind the decks, Sean channels his love for the dance floor into vibrant sets, alive with both emotion and sound. Fueled by a desire for communal movement, his repertoire consists of rhythms that are easily accepted by the moving body. He flows from R&B to driving disco, while infusing melodic techno and giving detailed consideration to house music in all its forms and flavors.
