Skylar Spence

Skylar Spence, formerly known as Saint Pepsi, is the stage name of Ryan DeRobertis, an American electronic musician and singer-songwriter. He initially gained attention in the early 2010s with his vaporwave and future funk tracks, which often featured manipulated samples from the 70s and 80s era funk and disco music. His music under the Skylar Spence moniker represents a departure from those vaporwave origins, showcasing more of an original synth-pop and indie dance sound that retains his knack for nostalgic hooks.

With the release of "Fiona Coyne / Fall Harder" in 2014, DeRobertis paid homage to a more personal and polished pop sound, culminating in his well-received album "Prom King" in 2015. The record told stories of his teenage years, the thrills of youth, and the pains of growing up, all set to infectious beats and shimmering synth lines. Despite flying under some listeners' radars, those who have unearthed Skylar Spence's discography find a treasure trove of catchy and emotionally resonant electronic music. His continued exploration of the genre is evident in singles such as "Carousel / Cry Wolf," showcasing his knack for emotive storytelling matched with his upbeat, danceable production style.
