Music career

2006–2010

Yaroslav Vynnytsky and Marc Joseph started working together in 2006 sharing a common interest in music production.[5] Soon after, they started a YouTube channel showcasing their in-studio performances and documenting their life in the music industry.[6] Their first production placement was on R. Kelly's "Double Up" Album titled "Get Dirty" featuring Chamillionaire. The album debuted at no.1 on the Billboard 200 earning the team their first platinum plaque.[7] They followed up with their second production placement on Kelly Rowland's "Ms. Kelly" album with a track titled "Love". In 2009, Mysto and Pizzi produced a remix of the Rockwell/Michael Jackson song "Somebody's Watching Me" which was used as the theme music for GEICO's "Kash" campaign.[8][9] In 2010, the R&B Group Brutha released their single "One Day on This Earth" which was a track produced by Mysto & Pizzi and written by R. Kelly.[10] The record peaked at no.94 on the US R&B charts.

2011–2015

In 2011, Mysto & Pizzi came in at no.15 on the Next Big Sound chart after releasing music under their own imprint.[11] They released 5 singles on Sony Music/Ultra Records including "Galax"[12][13] and "Flight to Paris".[14][15] They later released a track called "1UP" which was a Hip-Hop/Trap collaboration with American music producer Just Blaze.[16] Wynter Gordon also collaborated with Mysto & Pizzi for her EP titled The Human Condition pt.1: Doleo.[17][18] They produced 4 tracks on her project including "Nervous" featuring Travis Scott. In May 2014, Mysto & Pizzi developed their first indie-project with singer-songwriter Rachel Rabin called "RAIGN".[19] Their first solo track titled "Don't Let Me Go", debuted on episode 110 of The Vampire Diaries. She performed the song on The X Factor shortly after,[20][21] which led to the song peaking at No. 11 on the official UK indie breakers chart and no.38 on UK Alternative Charts.[22]

Additional work

Mysto & Pizzi were invited to the TED (conference) in Brussels, Belgium to create a workshop showing kids between the ages of 11 to 13 the basic fundamentals of music production.[23] They also collaborated with The American Cancer Society to create a viral campaign featuring Usher and Justin Bieber to help promote more birthdays.[24]
