An oversaturated, messy and elastic sound.

Overview

Melbourne producer Oscar Key Sung has gone unnoticed in New Zealand for long enough.

Cutting his teeth in the music industry as one half of Oscar + Martin back in 2010, Oscar has been garnering praise and collab invites ever since. Most notably, in 2013 he was picked by Mercury Music Prize-nominated mc Ghostpoet and Brooklyn-based artist MeLo-X to produce their debut release as MELOGHOST, ‘WecanWORKitout’. He's also been getting spins from BBC Radio 6 programmer Gilles Peterson, Twitter props from Years & Years and one of his latest singles ‘All I Could Do’ has clocked over 100k listens on Soundcloud and been remixed by Naysayer and Gilsun.

In describing his sound on his official Niche Productions bio, Oscar said “It’s a bit of a mess... I suppose I’m just a part of this generation of oversaturation,  where it’s easy to be as influenced Arvo Pärt as you are by Drake.”
