Songwriter | Composer | Producer


"One of those songwriters that just appear from outta nowhere; a resident of Manchester, he produces his own music and injects his songs with flourishes of sentiment, positivity and an uncanny uplifting quality. His slick skills are self-taught and across his work he turns his hand to a range of instruments to compliment his distinctive voice. His work is inspired by nature, the planet, space, escapism and feeling alive."

"It's a big step on from the refined indie electro-pop style on his first album 1138. Continuing the effervescent rhythm found in the last 2 EPs 'Constants' and 'Variables' the new material demonstrates a belief in his own talents and presents an uplifting and enjoyable journey showcasing his talent as a songwriter and performing artist. He totally embodies the DIY ethic by writing, performing, recording and managing the whole project right down to the graphic artwork. You'll find this album a genuine genre shifting experience which marries indie, pop, rock, acoustic, synth-pop, and ambient work."

"Real Fiction is the eagerly awaited follow up to debut album from Manchester singer/songwriter, Kyle Johnson. His music is injected with notes from life's journey managing a welcome uplifting quality. His lush layered vocal approach is evident in all tracks here, 'Impulse' with its heartfelt message carried on a looped piano, guitar and synthetic bursts. 'Odyssey' has a more electronic feel carrying its message, 'Before Tomorrow' has a relaxed sunday feel about its piano led charm. The backend of the album contains 'Quantum', which references a plethora of time travel movies, books, and games, 'Timeless' that takes us on adventure through the universe, and the final track 'Noir' paints a monochrome picture of a private eye/ femme fatale murder mystery! All in all a great follow up release full of creativity and imagination!"

"Kyle Johnson’s Apricity release continues the fizz of those the effervescent rhythms found on his previous release on the FWM imprint. Kyle demonstrates a keen ear for melody and matches it up with a wide range of instrumentation that develops the aesthetic foundations laid by his previous works. A pulsing electronic indie style that is driven by strong hooks and lyrical dexterity. Close your eyes and you can hear the 80s, 90s and the noughties influences… This definition of the EP title says it all – “The sun’s apricity is its warmth in winter. Apricity is a princess of a word, literally meaning 'Aprilness' and implying a yearning for spring. The warmth of the winter sun reminds us of the early days of spring, and summer's coming optimism... and that's Kyle's work through and through."
