Mumbai based trio Cryosis release their fourth dance-pop single ‘You Make Me’

Their latest You Make Me, follows their popular singles Breathe, Stay and Poison which gained popularity in the USA, Brazil, Indonesia and India. Their singles have garnered over 1,000,000 streams, and were exclusively featured on Vh1 India. Their most recent single Breathe charted as high as #6 on Vh1’s weekly top 10. 

You Make Me’s unique style and approach has Cryosis draw inspiration from Western, Country, Pop and Electronic music. You Make Me features snappy yet sultry vocals intertwined with electronic elements over a funky Mo-town inspired syncopated groove and a driving punchy bassline; memorable hooks are abound with a fun spaghetti western-style lead guitar and an unforgettable anthemic chorus. 

About the song and video they say “While Cryosis’s previous singles were more emotion based, You Make Me transports you into a story. We’ve watched enough westerns combined to be able to throw ourselves into this make-believe world complete with action, adventure and of course, romance. We imagined sets, situations, and an overall story”. 

Hailing from Mumbai, India, Cryosis comprises multi-instrumentalists & producers Siddhant Mishra and Sangeet Patnaik, and singer-songwriter Aakanksha Hejmadi. Siddhant and Sangeet established themselves as a top music writing team, creating TV themes, scores and compositions for world-famous brands such as Mercedes, MTV, and BMW, to name just a few. However, their deepest musical passions lay in pop-infused dance music. After Aakanksha collaborated with them on one of the tracks, they became inspired by her unique talent, and with the addition of Aakanksha, Cryosis was born. 

Musically, You Make Me sounds classic yet contemporary, moody yet energetic. Their approach was to blend new-age vocal sampling techniques with twangy guitar sounds reminiscent of Western Cowboy songs and Clint Eastwood classics. Aakanksha's vocals and harmonies add that modern pop touch. It has all the elements that you would expect on a Cryosis song - melodic guitars, mellifluously stacked vocals and a groove that won’t quit. “With this single, we really just wanted to put our dancing shoes on and go a little crazy” say the band.

You Make Me is mixed and mastered by Lavar Bullard and Grammy-Nominated, BRIT Award-winning Producer, Mixing & Mastering Engineer Prash "Engine-Earz" Mistry.

Cryosis were first discovered at the Amsterdam Dance Event Mumbai demo listening session, and by the following year's ADE, they won the prestigious ADE "Demolition Panel," chosen as the best demo in all of ADE Mumbai. Following their win, the three spent the next year honing their sound in the studio and creating a cohesive catalogue of songs which transcend ordinary dance music.
