Exclusive Q&A: Kilo House Reveals All In This Interview!

Check out our exclusive interview with producer and DJ Kilo House. He’s an alumni of the Icon Collective Music Production School. Definitely, his life is an example of perseverance and effort. Highly influenced by his musical background in the Deathcore scene, he’s now into dark Bass sounds. Frankly, there are many things I have been anxious to know about this enigmatic artist, so he brings to light his best answers. Happy reading!

1 – Let’s start off with your artistic name, where did Kilo House come from?

The name Kilo actually comes from the name of one of my pit bull rescues that I rescued from dogfighting but had to send to a pit bull reserve in New England due to the fact that I lived in an apartment. That was the hardest thing I ever had to do and actually started me on my path to production due to a great bout of depression I fell into. I chose that name because I wanted to embody his great strength love and unbreakable spirit. And House is a reference to the show house and my battle with a great deal of drug addiction at a young age.

2 – Is music production and DJing your full-time career?

Yes, but I also have a life coaching degree.

3 – Were there any obstacles that you had to overcome to establish your goals as an artist?

Yes, way too many to name brotha, I have lost friends, money, my health, and even experienced someone taking my best friend’s life, R.I.P. Raw Ronnie :-(

4 – What has changed the most over your musical influences?

I think the fact that I am now influenced by my own music and my own inspiring story is the biggest change. Due to chronic pain some days it is hard to even get out of bed but I remember that I AM NOT A VICTIM but like you graciously put it I AM A WARRIOR.

5 – What kind of sonic atmosphere are you trying to approach in your DJ sets?

I am an open format DJ. I’m DJing everything from Trap and Dubstep to Metal and House. As long as it has high energy, big drops, and a fun vibe.

6 – Tell us more about your latest single “The CHiLDREN”, are you a fan of the sampling technique?

Yes, the use of horror movies and other samples dates back to my days as a Deathcore drummer. Back in the day, Deathcore used a lot of movie samples and I brought that with me over to the Trap genre. Also the freedom I feel when watching a good horror film is the feeling I hope to give my listeners.

7 – How many days did it take you to record this banger?

To be totally honest less than 24 hours brotha.

8 – What else can we expect from your upcoming releases?

 I think you can expect more of the same high energy drops, but “maybe” a few with a bit more silly funny samples.

9 – What release are you most proud of that you produced and what’s the story behind it?

I am proud of them all. My songs are like my children, I birth them, watched them grow, and then released them out into the world to spread light and positivity. So, you can’t pick a favorite child, well the same with the songs you birth as an artist.

10 – Finally, how do you entertain yourself away from music?

First and foremost, I spend all the time in the world with my “best friend” my pit bull rescue named FLEX also I am a huge UFC fan so I try to make time as much as I can to watch the fights with my family.

I love working out and eating healthily and also am a quite good long-boarder. Plus, I also love expanding my mind by reading about different religions and philosophies.

But for the most part, I try to live a humble and modest lifestyle spending my downtime with my friends, family, and of course FLEX.
