Oliver Tank
Tank's electronica goes deeper to create intricate, densely layered music.
Overview
Sydney boy Oliver Tank has been absolutely killing it in the past couple of years since winning FBi Radio's Northern Lights competition in 2011, which saw him fly to Iceland to perform his first overseas show. Comparisons to Bon Iver and James Blake were perhaps inevitable, and to a certain extent Tank exists in that same broad 'electronica with emotions' sub-genre that those two artists dabble in. But Tank's electronica goes far deeper than a passing association to create intricate, densely layered music that has more in common with Boards of Canada or Jon Hopkins.
Tank is a rapidly rising star — in 2013 he supported James Blake at the Opera House and Active Child at the Melbourne Festival. Now touring his new EP Slow Motion Music, you should definitely check him out as a headline act.
