FLOAT RECORDS PODCAST 039 | @c0nn0rwall

"This mix is a shorter cut of my set at Solace at the start of April. To me, this was one of, if not my favourite gig to date. I haven't seen a dancefloor in Naarm/Melbourne rock that good in a long time. There are plenty of driving, mind twisted tracks in this set, with many unreleased tunes from the usual suspects (Neo, Obscur, Hasvat Informant etc)". - Connor Wall

The term "artist to watch" gets thrown around a lot these days, especially with the volume of new artists entering the scene with unprecedented access to tracks, information, and technology. Often, however, it's a certain attitude that elevates the true heads above the groundswell of an ocean of new artists, and Connor Wall is unquestionably of this ilk.

Inspired from past, present and future experiences - Connor's creative constancy has allowed him to shape his sound into the organic, weighty, and effective tracks you can hear on labels like Treatment, Float, Phorum and WSNWG.  There is a potent, heart-palpitating sonic representation that accompanies anything Connor does, and part of the reason why he is such an exciting prospect leading into the future. His devotion to a particular sound and approach has driven his ability to grow rapidly since entering the scene just a few years ago, and it is this obsession that will continue to allow him to blossom. He’s an artist to watch by all accounts, and whether it’s DJing or producing, he is emerging as an essential feature of Australia.
