Kayzo with HIVEMIND, SampliFire, and Dennett
Hayden Capuozzo, professionally known as Kayzo, is an American DJ and electronic music producer celebrated for his dynamic fusion of genres, including hardstyle, trap, dubstep, and electronic rock. Born on October 8, 1991, in Houston, Texas, he spent his formative years in various cities across the United States, ultimately establishing himself in Los Angeles, California.
Kayzo rose to prominence in 2012 after winning Insomniac's Discovery Project, which launched his career with a debut performance at Escape from Wonderland. Over the years, he has established himself as a genre-bending artist, blending the aggression of rock and metal with electronic energy. His catalog includes powerful collaborations with artists such as Papa Roach, Bad Omens, Scarlxrd, and Atreyu. Kayzo's tracks like "Alone" (featuring Our Last Night), "Suffocate" (with Bad Omens), "Up In Flames" (featuring Alex Gaskarth of All Time Low), and "Before The Storm" (with blessthefall) showcase his ability to seamlessly merge the raw intensity of rock with heavy basslines and dynamic electronic production. These collaborations have further positioned him as a key figure in bridging electronic and alternative music worlds.
In 2018, Kayzo released his debut album, "Overload," showcasing his signature genre-blending techniques. He continued this trajectory with his sophomore album, "Unleashed," in 2019, which featured collaborations with artists like Alex Gaskarth of All Time Low and the band Underoath. His third album, "New Breed," was released on June 24, 2022, further solidifying his reputation as a versatile producer.
Beyond his production work, Kayzo is the founder of Welcome Records, an imprint dedicated to promoting innovative electronic music. His dynamic live performances have graced major festivals worldwide, including Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo, Tomorrowland, and EDC Las Vegas.
As of December 2024, Kayzo continues to push the boundaries of electronic music, captivating audiences with his energetic performances and genre-defying productions.

The DJ/producer born Hayden Capuozzo has always felt the need for speed. As a kid, the Houston, Texas, native sought his adrenaline fix by playing hockey for his school teams. But his love of fast-paced sports planted the seed for a different sort of passion. As he explained in an interview with YourEDM.com, "Music, electronic to be more specific, was always a big part of my mental preparation for games. I like to think of my music as how I played hockey -- energetic and always moving."
After hanging up the skates, Capuozzo moved to Los Angeles in 2012. The world soon got its first taste of his manic mixing style when he entered the Discovery Project, a DJ competition hosted by Insomniac (the famed party promoters behind Las Vegas' Electric Daisy Carnival). His winning mix earned him a slot at Insomniac's Escape From Wonderland festival, Capuozzo's first-ever gig as Kayzo.
Over the next couple of years, he dropped a steady stream of singles and remixes that showcased his frenetic fusion of trap, dubstep, and hardstyle. His 2014 track "Tekken" earned placement on Illinois dance-pop duo Krewella's Ministry of Sound compilation, The Future Sound of EDM.
After launching his own label and metal-inspired merch line, Doghouse, Kayzo dropped his 2017 single "Wake Up." It was a delirious onslaught of ping-ponging electronic percussion, chipmunk-style vocal samples, and accelerated beats created in collaboration with Israeli dubstep duo RIOT. The track racked up 200,000 plays in its first day on SoundCloud and has since garnered more than 18 million streams on Spotify.
The inherently aggressive nature of Kayzo's music and DJ sets -- where he's been known to slip in edits of metalcore acts like Bring Me the Horizon and A Day to Remember -- made him a natural choice to provide an official remix for Papa Roach's nu-metal anthem "Last Resort" in 2018. Kayzo's EDM/rock crossover campaign continued with his first full-length album, the aptly titled Overload, which crosswired his blitzkrieged beats with squealing guitars and arena-sized vocals from Micah Martin of Iowa hard-rock outfit The Zealots.
