Taking inspiration from trip-hop, ambient music, and lush 80's synth-driven pop, this Melbourne duo has been busily crafting slices of indie electronica since forming in early 2019. With Kim McInnes delivering restrained yet seductive vocals, and Chops taking care of instruments / production duties, their unique sound is showcased across their two launch singles. "Tears of Gold" is an understated piece of electro-pop, best enjoyed driving along a highway with the top down. The follow-up single "The Longest Wave" reflects DUST's more moody alter-ego, with graceful vocals building to a triumphant finish.

Newcastle post-punk quintet dust are fast cementing their status as one of the country’s most singular and essential bands. Urgent, mesmeric, and arresting both on and off the stage, the collective have wasted no time in ensuring that their music and message reaches as far as it possibly can. Forming against the backdrop of COVID in May 2020, the group – comprising vocalists and guitarists Gabriel Stove and Justin Teale, bassist Liam Smith, guitarist and saxophonist Adam Ridgway, and drummer Kye Cherry – gathered whenever they could to hone their craft, performing at every possible chance as they sharpened their sprawling yet intricate sound. Offering a contemporary take on Australian post-punk, along with elements of experimental jazz and electronic music, dust have curated a sound that is as dark, introspective, and angular as it is powerful and progressive. Together, they’re set to provide Australian music with the sort of powerful jolt that will reverberate for years to come.
