Deckhead 2.0

I have a sick remix to brighten up this miserable Friday afternoon, it comes from Sydney based DJ Alison Wonderland, who is slowly becoming one of Sydney’s most sought after party starter djs. Her musical background is quit diverse, she started out as a classically trained musician, turned indie bass player, and now ripping up the Sydney scene as a DJ. It comes as no surprise to me and anyone around her that the next path she would follow would be into production and based on this first track I see a bright future.

Born from a late-night revelation on a stormy eastern Sydney shore, Sherlock’s Daughter front woman Tanya Horo weaved the fatasy worlds of the sepia-tinged memories of Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes, fleeting new-world colonial adventure & ornate pagan ceremonial impressions. Bridging the gap between insanity & parable, the 5 piece knit together a heaving experience of heavy dream pop through shifting frames of multi-instrumentation… The music is replete with diverse elements such as live videogame tweaking, percussive sandpaper, echoing handclaps, marimba, sampled rhythmic scenes and sweet, uneasy harmonies.
