Mini bio

How it started.

Vik began making YouTube videos in 2010. In a Game Informer interview, he traced the idea to school friends who recorded themselves gaming. His early Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 tutorials showed viewers where to throw knives and tomahawks across maps. As strangers began watching, he expanded into full matches, tips and montages.

Finding his people.

Minecraft opened up a different audience, while Grand Theft Auto V sessions with other UK creators put friendship and funny moments at the centre of his videos. By 2015, he was making content with both the Sidemen and Minecraft group The Pack. The Sidemen grew into a wider entertainment collective, and Vik later helped bring its reality competition Inside to Netflix.

From gaming to the decks.

Vik told EDMTunes that a 2015 trip to Ultra Miami sparked his love of EDM. Alan Walker later encouraged him to learn to DJ and brought him onstage at Tomorrowland in 2022. His first official single, Better Off (Alone, Pt. III), arrived in 2023 with Walker and Dash Berlin. Since then, his releases have included collaborations with Steve Aoki, Sickick and Aloe Blacc.
