#JELLYBEAN

#3RDSTRINGFTW! (For The Win!) is a producer out of Birmingham, AL, formerly known as HILYTE MUSIC. In 2022, a bold rebrand set the stage for a sonic evolution—sharper, louder, and more elevated.

Rooted in the golden eras of the ’90s and 2000s, 3 blends nostalgic influence with modern energy: synth-heavy melodies, punchy 808s, and uptempo grooves in the 120–140 BPM lane. The result? Beats that slap and glide—built for movement, mood, and momentum.

His debut tape, #3RDSTRING, captures emotional highs and lows while paying tribute to the sounds that shaped him. Tight melodies, feel-good vibes, and undeniable knock remain his signature.

“I tell stories through sound. No lyrics needed—just your ears, your mind, and a beat that moves you.”
