Daedelus

Overview

L.A. beat producer Daedelus is returning to Australia to play a number of shows following the release of his latest album Bespoke. Littered with cameos from musicians such as Milosh and Baths, Bespoke furthers Daedelus’s reputation as a vibrant and eclectic artist.

Daedelus’s music oozes with thick washes of sound, ethereal vocals and slower grooves in the style of Flying Lotus or MF Doom. His output is as varied as it is prolific — one of his albums largely features audio samples from spy movies, while another draws on the French surrealistic art method known as exquisite corpse. In short, Daedelus seeks to provide a staggering sensory experience. Renowned for his 19th-century ‘dandy’ dress sense and evocative video clips, the Daedelus experience is to be seen as well as heard. So if this sounds like something you’d like to be a part of, be sure to catch his Sydney show at Goodgod Small Club in Chinatown this Friday. Supporting artists include Australian up-and-comers Collarbones and Galapagoose, the latter of which Daedelus has recently signed to his Magical Properties label.
