Aleyum

Conor Hynes, professionally known as Aleyum, is an Irish-born electronic music producer and DJ based in San Francisco, CA. He works across ambient, downtempo and liquid drum & bass, and has released music on Silk Music, Lemongrassmusic, Offworld Recordings and Monstercat (Silk).

Public records show Aleyum debuted on Silk Music in 2018 with the track "Soul Remedy." He later released music on Monstercat (Silk) in 2021. Those label credits and dates are the most concrete entry points for his recorded output; further public biographical detail about his early life and exact pathway into the scene is limited.

On record, Aleyum sits at the intersection of ambient textures and liquid DnB. His productions combine sustained, reverb-forward pads and field-like atmospheres with drum programming that favors steady, song-style breaks rather than aggressive amen edits. Tracks credited to him emphasize melodic development and harmonic pads alongside lower-frequency support — the kind of liquid-leaning sub-bass and warm midrange that places melody and mood ahead of maximal percussion attack.

As a producer, Aleyum’s techniques lean toward cinematic layering: long-tail reverbs, delay on melodic elements, and restrained drum processing to keep space in the mix. His arrangements commonly move from downtempo or ambient introductions into uptempo liquid sections, so releases can function as both listening pieces and DJ tools. Where present, percussion is mixed to sit under the pads rather than compete with them, and bass design tends to favor rounded, smooth waveforms rather than harsh distortion.

Career milestones are label-focused. Silk Music issued his first known release, "Soul Remedy," in 2018. He has since appeared on Lemongrassmusic and Offworld Recordings, and he put out material on Monstercat (Silk) in 2021. Those releases document his consistent placement within labels that program melodic, downtempo and liquid-oriented electronic music and drum & bass.

In performance roles he is listed as both a producer and a DJ. That dual role is reflected in his recorded structure: tracks that begin with ambient or downtempo passages and transition into tight liquid grooves lend themselves to DJ mixing while still working as standalone listening tracks.

Specific named influences have not been publicly catalogued in available sources. What is verifiable from his output and label choices is a clear alignment with ambient/downtempo aesthetics and the melodic side of drum & bass commonly labelled liquid — a sound demonstrated on his 2018 Silk Music debut and on his 2021 Monstercat (Silk) releases.

Public information on Aleyum beyond those releases and label credits is limited; the record of "Soul Remedy" (Silk, 2018) and subsequent 2021 releases on Monstercat (Silk), plus appearances on Lemongrassmusic and Offworld Recordings, are the verified anchors for his profile as an Irish-born, San Francisco–based producer and DJ working between ambient, downtempo and liquid drum & bass.
