Later in his adolescence, he would develop an interest in music production. Kayobe’s skill set over the years include producing, singing, sound engineering and creating visual effects.

Kayobe gives us a hint on what to expect with his forthcoming album, “Islands to Bridges was written and recorded on three different continents and was inspired by the sights and sounds around me. There were phases during the creation of this album when I was feeling more solitary (islands), and phases when I was feeling compelled to connect more deeply with others (bridges). There are more energetic party tracks, and more subdued chillout tracks – I hope they take you on a journey from wherever you are to wherever you want to be.”
