A*L!$t

Elevating artists, brands, and communities with precision, creativity, and measurable impact.



Connect With Me

I’m Dylan “Price” Hilton, professionally known as A*L!$t. My mission is to create, grow, and connect artists and brands through integrity, skill, and relentless work ethic. I combine music production, photography, video, digital marketing, and branding strategy to generate measurable results.From starting an Instagram presence at 16 to organically growing hundreds of thousands of followers, to building APIs that optimize music promotion workflows, I focus on the long-term impact of every project. I’ve dedicated countless 12–14 hour days to manual labor, sales, and digital creation because what matters most is the legacy I leave behind, not immediate gains.

Deliverables: Session files, stems, cue sheets, social-ready snippets, and a release checklist to prevent rollout leaks or misses.

Promotion & Rollout

Teaser ladder, pre-save push, day-0 clips, week-1 remix or acoustic, and fan stitching challenges to extend lifecycle.

Tools, APIs & Automation I Built

AList.Promo API

Automates post timing, pulls reference sounds/trends, and schedules teaser variations to maximize early saves and shares.

Impact: “Always-on” consistency without creative burnout; frees time for studio work and A&R outreach.

SmartRoute CRM

Lightweight CRM stages for artists, studios, and managers with automated follow-ups, deliverable checklists, and pipeline health views.

Impact: Fewer dropped DMs, faster closes, clear handoffs between production, promo, and release.

AutoCut Media Pipeline

Batch-creates short clips from long sessions, overlays captions, and exports platform-ready aspect ratios.

Impact: 5–10x more content from the same studio day; consistent reach without extra recording sessions.

Delivery beats excuses. If I put my name on it, it’s done right, on time, and measured.

I care more about what I leave behind than what I take with me.
