A producer who went from anonymous uploads to collaborations with Dillon Francis within just a couple years, L.A. based artist NGHTMRE was born Tyler Marenyi in Stamford, Connecticut and raised in Raleigh, North Carolina. After getting a degree in Finance from Elon University, Tyler decided to move to L.A. and take a chance on his love of making music.

At first, he uploaded Trap and House remixes of tracks by Tiësto, Rae Sremmurd, and Skrillex, then he began releasing a set of his own tracks, some in collaborations with producer Slander. He hit in early 2015 with “Street,” a track Skrillex played during his headlining set at the Ultra Music Festival. Mad Decent signed the producer that same year and gave “Street” an official release.
