FNAF meets Deadmau5.
Emerging from Sydney’s electronic underground, producer Amir Kahali, known as Dysto, crafts a sonic identity as compelling as his stage name’s allusion.
Drawing direct inspiration from the brooding atmospherics of mau5trap alumni like Deadmau5 and Rezz, Dysto has carved a niche defined by what he calls the “Dysto Effect,” a commitment to genre-fluid experimentation within EDM’s vast landscape.
From techno and house to hip-hop instrumentals, his work, including the well-received Where I Am series and 2025’s ‘Hellraiser,’ demonstrates a relentless drive to evolve.
This creative ethos culminates powerfully in his latest single, ‘Security Breach,’ an inspired tribute to the Five Nights at Freddy’s universe that stands as his most immersive work to date.
In ‘Security Breach,’ Dysto channels the eerie, playful, and suspenseful essence of FNAF into a pulsating EDM framework.
The track immediately establishes a tense, cinematic atmosphere with glitching synths and unsettling ambient layers, perfectly evoking the game’s signature dread.
But true to his promise, Dysto ensures the song transcends its inspiration. A colossal, driving beat soon drops, transforming the tension into a potent, rhythm-forward energy that is irresistibly danceable.
For fans, it’s a rich, auditory Easter egg filled with familiar sonic cues and a palpable sense of lurking animatronic menace.
For the uninitiated, it’s simply a brilliantly produced, hard-hitting EDM track. The production is polished and powerful, with meticulous attention to detail in every build, drop, and textured layer.
It’s the kind of track meant to be played at maximum volume, whether in a dark room for atmosphere or blasting during a commute for an adrenaline surge.

Dysto has succeeded in creating something uniquely replayable.
‘Security Breach’ balances narrative intrigue with pure sonic force, proving that his ‘Dysto Effect’ is more than a motto, it’s a proven formula for crafting fresh, engaging, and masterfully executed electronic music.
This single not only capitalises on the hype for the franchise’s upcoming film but solidly establishes Dysto as a producer with the vision and skill to turn niche inspiration into universal anthems.
