Dilan Skies kicks off an exciting new chapter with HABITS, the first teaser from his forthcoming debut album, TO BE SEEN. Blending the infectious grooves of modern pop with the smooth finesse of R&B, the British-Indian artist crafts a track that is both sonically rich and emotionally resonant.
Driven by a steady indie-infused beat, HABITS unfolds with shimmering synth licks and lush harmonies, building into an atmospheric rise that feels both euphoric and intimate. Groove-laden basslines anchor the track, while Dilan’s signature melodic sensibility shines through, offering listeners a taste of what’s to come from his debut LP.
Speaking about the album, Dilan shares, “I wanted to create my debut album as a way to introduce the world to DILAN SKIES. I’ve named the album TO BE SEEN because that’s exactly why I wanted to release an album. The project focuses on exactly that & has multiple definitions: being seen as an independent artist in a competitive industry, being seen as a South Asian artist in an industry where we are rarely visible, & the effects of being seen and not seen in a relationship.”
Born and raised in London, Dilan Skies has been immersed in music from a young age. After refining his craft in the solitude of his bedroom, he took his first major step at 18, catching the attention of Edgar Sandoval Jr, who recognized his talent early on. Since his debut in 2020, Dilan has continued to evolve, drawing influence from pop and R&B while gaining recognition from BBC Introducing.
With HABITS, Dilan Skies offers a vibrant, genre-blurring sound that sets the stage for what promises to be a defining moment in his career. If this track is any indication, TO BE SEEN is poised to be a breakthrough statement from an artist ready to claim his space in the industry.
