Oceanland is a producer based in Sydney. Having been born in the rich culture sphere of Newtown, he relocated to the Northern Beaches at the age of 10 and fell in love with the beach. Since the age of 12 he has been forging on various electronic experiments slowly chipping, away at his vision. Oceanland combines an aesthetic of vapid glamour and sinister after dark nous populated with characters whose lives are consumed with desire and desperation, the bright of the day and the cool of the night. A feeling of borrowed nostalgia informs his music, like that of the day after Mardi Gras, the vibe that maybe we missed out on the party so now we have to create our own.

Fusing the sneering songcraft of Bob Dylan and Steely Dan with the subtler points of glam and various 70’/80’s rock and an obsession with futuristic sonics, Oceanland values attention to detail, in both melody and lyrics. A balance between the two, brings real songwriting into the 21st century.
