ON THE RADAR WITH THE 012'S FINNEST

Remyn Seventeen is a rising South African musician and songwriter, who is making waves with his latest release "Birds of the same feather". The song, which is registered under an independent label, explores the concept of people flocking together, and the impact of relationships and loyalty on one another.

Born on November 17th, 1999, in the small town of Temba, Manyeleti, Pretoria, Remyn started his musical journey at a young age. He began singing in choirs when he was in grade 5 and continued through to grade 12, where he accumulated numerous trophies and medals for his exceptional vocal talents. In 2014, he started writing his own song.

What is your creative process like? Can you walk me through how you come up with ideas and bring them to life?

My creative process I usually get beats from my producer and other different producers as soon as I catch a vibe I write songs after writing 5 or 6 song I book a studio session.

I have few people around me who help overcome obstacles and sometimes I don't see them as challenges, I see them as an eye opener because after I know what to do better.

What themes or concepts do you explore in your art, and why are they important to you?

My first E.P and Second E.P are both time capsules because I dropped them in a time where I was going through a lot as an artist trying to figure my unique sound and learning a lot at the same time. Those projects mean a lot to me because they healed me and Gave me a direction in life.
