WHAT IT IS: Rising German artist BUNT. quickly made a name for himself with his playful and lively electronic productions. He moved to the U.S. to work on his artistic development, but the COVID-19 pandemic led him back to Germany, where he battled through financial challenges and continued working on his music. In December 2022 he posted a snippet single “Clouds,” which led to the Hamburg native’s breakout moment in 2023. The track secured 50m+ TikTok impressions, debuted #15 on the Hot Electronic Songs charts and has since garnered 144m+ streams RTD. The producer/DJ released his debut project, Levi Don’t Do It, to acclaim, and he’s just had second leg added to his sold-out U.S./EU Clouds Part II World Tour, after several viral moments increased his social following 135% in just a few months.
