18-year-old Lostkeyz grew up by the shores of Bondi Beach, graduating from high school just last year. While he might be fresh on the scene for some, the artist has been experimenting with production since the age of 15, before making the decision to jump behind the mic over his own beats.

Lostkeyz had an encouraging 2014, supporting Daily Meds, alongside DJ Victor Lopez at the Oxford Art Factory in Sydney, gaining airplay on FBi Radio, and co-hosting a show on Bondi Beach Radio. This year, he’s spent all but two months outside of Australia, soaking up inspiration while travelling around Israel and Poland, culminating in the release of this 10-track debut mixtape.

Organic Narratives is a project far from home but remains close to his heart with personal topics such as death and love featuring strongly throughout the tape. Lostkeyz wrote the ‘Sky’ while sitting with his grandmother who was in hospice care at the time, exploring the questions we all ask when a loved one passes away. The mixtape also features a bevy of guest artists including Kid Pharaoh, Savilian, Flip the Script, and current travel buddy Jake Fehily.

“Organic Narratives is an honest insight into my world. It embodies the concept of raw expression and I hope you take something from it, if you don’t, well then… you don’t.”
