Mutant (Dipesh Yadav) | Music Producer & Composer
About Me
I am Dipesh Yadav, professionally known as Mutant, a self-taught music producer, composer, sound designer, and lyricist based in India. My journey into the sonic world didn't start in a studio, but behind a computer screen. At age 14, while developing sound effects for a game project, my passion for programming evolved into a deep-seated obsession with music production.
The Mutant Sound
The name "Mutant" reflects my identity as the first musician in my family and my lifelong fascination with science. My signature sound is a high-energy fusion of Hip Hop, Trap, EDM, and Boom Bap. Rooted in my Indian heritage, I make it a point to weave at least one traditional Indian instrument into every track, creating an authentic "Modern-Indian" aesthetic that resonates globally.
Milestones & Recognition
With a focus on organic growth, my music has surpassed 16 million streams across all major platforms without the use of paid promotion. My work has gained international traction, notably peaking at #108 on the Apple Music Hip Hop Daily charts.
Beyond my solo career, I am an active ghost producer for short films and commercial brands, crafting soundtracks that drive engagement and emotion. My discography is a testament to my versatility, featuring EPs like:
Broken Heart: A soulful exploration of friendship and acceptance.
Dark Blaze: A deep dive into the Drill genre, featuring tracks like the emotional “El Amor” and the hard-hitting “Bratva.”
Featured In
My story and musical evolution have been featured in leading publications including in UK's award winning British Asian magazine DESIblitz®, T2Online, DESIblitz, ShoutOut LA, and Culture Crossroads. Whether I am producing a drill anthem or a cinematic score, my goal remains the same: to push the boundaries of digital sound while staying true to my roots.
