Meet Ryn Weaver, The Mysterious Twenty-Something Behind This Summer's Best Song

The internet is going crazy over her insanely-catchy song “OctaHate,” but where did she come from?


Ryn Weaver is officially a big deal.

She put up her song “OctaHate” last week, and it wasn't long before other artists were tweeting about their obsession with the bouncy, life-giving track.

The song was created with an all-star team of Charli XCX, Passion Pit's Michael Angelakos, and producers Cashmere Cat and Benny Blanco.

And though that team sounds a little too good to be true, don't think it's the mastermind plot of some major label. Ryn responded to a commenter on a Stereogum article explaining how the collaboration was a more a matter of right time-right place, and hard work:


“hehe that would be nice to have some major label money. Actually, i met benny at a party a year back and showed him my sound cloud… he had already been working with cashmere cat a bit… and he showed michael some of my music that I had produced and written on my own… and we all kinda just started to make some music. I'm signed to friends keep secrets… and indie. this is actually more of a passion project for them but it's my vision. I know i'm not supposed to respond to internet trolls but i was bored. xx”
