KC Styles is one of those rare artists who truly moves the spirit and inspires the soul. As a child prodigy, he was in a serious car accident that nearly took his life. The doctors were sure that recovery would be limited and KC would likely never walk again. He refused to give in to his injuries and added a pair of drumsticks to his therapy regime to help regain his dexterity. He adopted a synthesizer that his mother, a music teacher, used for her students and was quickly overwhelmed by the sounds he would create. KC taught himself to spin records and was mentored by a top DJ, adding another dimension to his music skills. He combined all his instruments into a symphony that is uniquely his own. His grandfather had given him a violin which he spent time relearning with his own fresh, innovative twist. He showcased the violin as the lead instrument when he composed and performed his first dance track to rave reviews on his debut EP “Dream the Unseen”…
The violin takes center stage in KC’s live shows. He also plays drums and keyboards and creates background layers of orchestral and electronic beats in his studio to accompany him on stage. KC’s latest works are explosive and edgy and are guaranteed to grab and captivate his audiences.
KC Styles has teamed up with Award Winning Dance Radio Producer and Voice Talent Harry Legg to remix hits for Better Than Ezra, Novelle and others. Their Better Than Ezra remix of “Juicy” and Novelle “Save Me” (the rescue mix) are both available on iTunes and have received regular radio play on Sirius and XM satellite radio as well as terrestrial dance music radio. KC spent many months in the studio working with Harry at the legendary WKTU, The Beat of New York. KC and Harry's work could be heard not only in their remixes but also on the air as part of WKTU's station Imaging.
