Full Bio

Kirill Kalashnikov, aka Wyro, prefers to be addressed as they/them. They consist of 13 personalities, only four of which are from Earth.

The first persona is the ghost of a ghost producer, who, possibly, made a couple of The Prodigy's early albums and a few other intergalactic bestsellers.

The second persona is a Love-electric cloud. It's really hard to describe it without getting horny.

The third one is an intelligent speaker, who was sent to this time from the Future to influence music producers in a way that they will help build the robot's version of the Future.

The fourth one is an alien social worker. You would probably try to guess and say this alien was sent to Earth to do some social work, but no, you are, as always, wrong. He just moved here to spend his retirement with a Love-electric cloud.

The fifth persona is a guy from Siberia, Russia. We shouldn't talk about him. Dark childhood.

The sixth one is a Ukrainian guy. And you are wrong again: he and the Russian persona are good friends, because they are both anarchists, bonded by their hatred of politicians. He left Ukraine when he was three, because his hometown was not far from Chernobyl at the time of the accident. We still don't know whether he was exposed to radiation from the explosion. His two heads suggest that he might have been, though.

The seventh is a whiny little energy vampire. His only survival strategy is to complain so loudly and pitifully that other people fix his life, feed his ego, and warm his bed just to get some peace and quiet.

The eighth persona is another alien. These species mostly live in water and renew all their cells every seven hours - imagine that!

Number 9 is a Spider, The Black Widow's ex. He's as dead as it gets (faked his death). Now he's weaving new nets. Absent dad who has zero regrets. He was raised in a lineage of absent dads.

Number 10 is a minimalist translator of cosmic pattern. Very deep fella.

The eleventh is a young rebel samurai from the Gishi Cluster. According to legend, he survived a torture session during which his penis was severed. He replaced it with a golden prosthesis and uses it as a weapon against his enemies. He is a true poet and the one who writes all of Wyro's lyrics.

The twelfth person is the one you become when you are flying in your sleep. Now, that's a twist!

The thirteenth is a compiler - a piece of code, which escaped the Upgrade Cube. Hates vacations and small talk.

*The seventh persona is no longer with us. The other twelve held a brief meeting, reached unanimous agreement on his unbearability, and pushed him out a window.

And now, a boring bio for the nerds who made it this far: Kirill Viktorovich Kalashnikov, aka Wyro, was born in 1983 in Zaporizhzhia - a fact considerably less interesting than anything you just read above, but here we are. Ever since, he's been on a lifelong mission to make the world a better sounding place, one questionable decision at a time.

He started out making noise in Fast Tracker 2, graduated to FL Studio, then found religion in Ableton, and eventually built himself a modular rig heavy enough to count as cardio. These days he hauls that rig around the world for live electronic sets, having played rooms like London's Fabric and Zurich's Frieda's Büxe, along with a long list of other places that consider themselves very fashionable indeed.

Electronics alone was apparently never enough - Kirill also writes lyrics, works closely with vocalists, sings his own parts, and even plays a bit of guitar, because not even a thirteen-headed cosmic entity can survive 25 years of purely instrumental output without losing the plot.

Outside the studio and the stage, he's organized festivals and parties, built, grew, and eventually sold the electronic music school Tramplin.Pro, hosted podcasts and a radio show, and generally collected more music-adjacent side quests than any sane person should take on.

All of that, however, is history now. Wyro has decided to focus purely on creative projects, which is a polite way of saying there is no steady day job to fall back on anymore. So: pray for them, that they don't starve - or, better yet, skip the praying and go buy something on Bandcamp. Real money keeps a person fed far more reliably than good intentions.
