More CYRIL More CYRIL

Anyone who listens to the radio or Spotify playlists knows that CYRIL had an absolutely massive 2024 with hugely successful remixes.

Today, Spotify Australia has revealed just how mighty his year was, with the Darwin-based artist dominating the Australian Music Global Impact List, which covers the calendar year of 2024. The list includes the Top 30 tracks by Australian artists that had the most significant global impact on Spotify on an international scale.

CYRIL topped the list with his remix of Disturbed’s take on The Sound Of Silence. Two other songs by the Aussie DJ feature on the Top 30, including The Door (remixing Teddy Swims) and Fall At Your Feet (remixing Crowded House) featuring Dean Lewis, made it to #18 and #24, respectively.

CYRIL said of the achievement, “I’m incredibly honoured to have three tracks featured on the Spotify Global Impact List, including a No.1 spot, alongside so many talented artists. It makes me proud that my music can show the world that Australians aren’t here to f*** spiders.”

He continued, “I’ve always wanted to show the world just how incredible Aussie music is, so topping the Global Impact List alongside so many idols of mine is absolutely unreal. None of this would’ve been possible without the support of Spotify Australia, not just locally, but on a global scale.”

Spotify Australia Artist & Label Partnership Lead Leah Harris said of this year’s Australian Music Global Impact List, “Spotify’s Australian Music Global Impact List continues to provide a fantastic snapshot of the power of a borderless music industry, breaking down the local acts making a big impact overseas.

“It’s fantastic to see such an exciting up-and-coming act like CYRIL taking out the #1 spot after having a breakout 2024 both locally and abroad. The latest edition of the list demonstrates that both established and emerging acts are building overseas audiences through Spotify, a crucial part of building sustainable careers in music.”
