Niles Hollowell-Dhar had his first taste of mainstream success in 2010 when he produced the number #1 song in America “Like a G6” under the alias “The Cataracs”
Many platinum recordings would follow as Niles worked with some of the largest names in music: Beyonce, Justin Bieber, Dr. Luke, Carlos Santana, Enrique Iglesias, Selena Gomez, Pitbul, Robin Thicke, 50 Cent, Snoop Dogg, David Guetta, Jason Derulo, Sean Paul, Becky G, Benny Blanco and many more.
After collaborating on a dance recording called “Tsunami” in 2013, Niles’ interest in pop music began to fade. Under the alias KSHMR, short for Kashmir (the region in India his ancestors are from) electronic dance music would become his new music outlet, as he watched “Tsunami,” an entirely instrumental track, top charts in countries all around the world.
KSHMR’s rise to global recognition happened nearly overnight. In 2015 he entered DJ Mag’s top 100 DJs (a globally recognized pole of hundreds of thousands of voters from around the world) at #23 — the highest entrance of the year. The following year he would be voted #12 as he toured the world, playing his music for millions.
Coined the “prince of cinematica,” blending hard kicks and melodic elements of the dance scene with orchestral compositions has become his trademark. Much like dance music was the next step after the world of pop, composing and scores is surely his next.

The lyrics, the composition and the ingenuity that have developed over the course of her life can be felt in each bar that Crystal Caines delivers. Her talents are celebrated by many and have already been etched into the culture that birthed her musical form as evidenced with her collaboration credits on tracks that include Nick Jonas, MIA, Bone Thugs n Harmony, Baauer, Souldiggaz, Smoke Dza, Nottz, and many more.
