what's on

Felix Nyajo aka salute was born in Aspern to a cab driver and a nurse. Nyajo's older brother introduced them to R&B and 90s hip hop when they were a kid, and Nyajo also started learning to play a Yamaha keyboard. In their early teens, Nyajo became influenced by Scottish musicians, Rustie and Hudson Mohawke, and started producing their own beats on Fruity Loops. Nyajo first became interested in production after hearing the Sonic Rush soundtrack, taking further inspiration coming from the SSX On Tour and FIFA Street 2 soundtracks. Nyajo compiled their first works on their parents' computer using a pirated copy of FL Studio they had obtained aged 13.
