Fito has had a passion for music since he was a child, at only 6 years old he began playing around with his father’s computer - using Sony’s ACID Pro 5.0 software to create his first remixes.
The skills that Fito has developed in such a short amount of time truly show his natural talent, along with his incredible hard work and dedication - Fito has already worked with artists such as Lana Shea, G4BBA, KLe Twins, and T Rabb among many others!DJ’s around the globe have used Fito’s tracks in their own sets - and at huge events such as EDC Las Vegas, UEFA Champions Festival, Summerburst and UshuaÏa Ibiza. The list of DJ’s consists of Hardwell, Blasterjaxx, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and Deorro - an insane achievement for such a young individual.
Merida, Mexico is where this talented young DJ was born and raised - and where he has created his music! He has performed at large scale events in his country and is looking forward to performing his sets live on stages worldwide. With travel bans and restrictions being in place due to COVID 19 - Heavyweight Records decided they had to get creative and find a way to stay connected with their supporters - they came up with “Demo Day”, a live A&R session where producers would get instant feedback from the crew at Heavyweight! It was an incredible way for Heavyweight to hear tracks from fantastic producers that they had never heard of before.
Thanks to the incredible “Demo Day” A compilation of six songs were discovered that were too good not to be shared - so they created “The Lockdown EP”.
One of the featured artists on the EP was rising star Fito. The song Fito has released with Heavyweight is an absolute hit - from the vocals to the drops, to the bass - everything about this song makes you want to listen - (and dance!)
We got the chance to talk with the incredibly talented Fito and ask him a few questions - here’s what he had to say!
What sets you apart from all the other DJ´s and producers in today's music scene?
I think what makes me different is that I´ve been attracted to music from a very early age. My dad has a mobile disco for parties and I grew up surrounded by speakers and cd players so I realized I loved music and never looked back. From that day on I`ve focused only on creating music, I don't have any other vices, my only vice is music. – he says with a big smile.
Which artists have influenced you? Who do you admire?
In first place I´d have to say Afrojack. He´s been one of my biggest inspirations back from when I first started making music, I love that he´s still making bangers. I also look up to artists like Boombox Cartel, Skrillex and PEEKABOO cause of their fresh drops and inspiring melodies and finally Deorro, because he´s still producing what he likes, he stays true to his essence and I think that´s the hardest thing about being a producer.
How do you see yourself in 3 years?
In 3 years I see myself focused, disciplined and reaching my goals. I dream about playing on stages like Ultra, Coachella, Tomorrowland, EDC Las Vegas, etc. And even though I know it´s a long road to that point, I love music and I will remain consistent until I get there.
For Fito Silva - this is just the beginning of a long and successful journey.
