While other DJs are spinning their craft in front of distracting LED lights or overdone pyrotechnics, BYNX works best in front of Los Angeles traffic. It’s one of those things that perhaps could only work in the TikTok age.
His followers number in the millions, with videos that show off his musical and comedic talents. One is a remix of Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On,” with the tagline “There was plenty of room on that door for Jack,” playing on the popular Titanic meme. Another remixes Skee-Lo’s “I Wish,” focusing on the line “I wish I was a little bit taller, I wish I was a baller,” with the tag “Short King Anthem.” These are just a couple of viral hits BYNX is known for, and why he’s one of 2024’s artists to watch.
Aside from conquering the cutthroat world of short-form video, BYNX is perhaps most known for his collaboration with deadmau5 and @bennybenassi for 2023’s mega hit “The Veldt Cinema,” which has accumulated over 100 million plays since its release. BYNX is currently in the midst of his first North American tour, and he sat down with Playboy to talk about his rise, his creative process, and his secrets to social media success.
This weekend, we turned it up at The Hollywood Roosevelt for our PLAYBOY AFTER DARK party, celebrating Victoria Monét’s JAGUAR II : Deluxe. DJ Fannie Mae kept the vibes right all night and we toasted with MONET AFTER DARK cocktails, courtesy of Los Négros.

Writer, model, and viral content creator Isabel Timerman started posting videos in 2022, using social media as an outlet after a messy breakup. With her candid, painfully relatable posts, she quickly amassed a devoted following and millions of views.
We are pleased to present Dating, Unhinged, an exclusive column for Playboy that dives into the chaos of modern dating in New York City.
When asked about the column, Isabel shares, “After two years as a TikToker, I’m ready to reveal a new side of myself—one deeply connected to words and creative expression. Platforms like TikTok have shortened our attention spans, and in a world where everyone has a podcast or a show, I wanted to do something a bit different. Something more old school. More me. If I can help even one person heal, laugh, or navigate this crazy circus of modern dating, it’ll all have been worth it.”
