Arpy Brown return to Toy Tonics with an EP showcasing emotionally layered dance tracks and their refusal to stick to genre conventions. The duo are synonymous with sublime cuts that are just as suited to late nights and early mornings on the dancefloor, as they are to home-listening, this perfectly exhibited on the "Noguiera" EP.

The four-tracker is named after a remote place in the mountains around Rio de Janeiro where it was made on a creatively fruitful getaway in 2021. It's sentimental, joyful, bouncy, and futuristic, and showcases the duo’s musicality combining bass guitar and piano, with hardware synths, loops and fragmented vocal samples.

Robin explains - "Spending time in Brazil in recent years was a blessing. The nature, culture and musical heritage over there is beautiful. Mostly in solitude, as I ended up spending most of my time in a remote place in the mountains around Rio, music became the only real emotional outlet for a while. So in a way this is a record of dance music created as far away as we’ve ever been from the dance floor!"

Both from a live performance background, Robin and Avi met studying at Goldsmiths London and found their way to the dance floor via playing in bands, Robin a guitarist, Avi classically trained in trumpet and later on picking up the keys. Absorbing the community of South London, they eventually set up artist collective and record label Squareglass - a proudly established home for new artists coming out of the area. They’ve remixed for the likes of Rhythm Section, collaborated with Olugbenga, and their releases have come with reworks from Ross from Friends, Cameo Blush, Baltra and Seb Wildblood. In 2021, their hybrid sound found a new home with tastemaker German label Toy Tonics who released their "Vesta" EP in May, followed by a run of European tour dates including Funkhaus Berlin, Phonox London and Amsterdam Dance Event.

Arpy Brown - Nogueira

Hey everyone!
Been a minute since I've put a track up here. I have been focusing on some other projects for a bit, but I really wanted to get something up on this. I'm sick of sitting on tracks! 

Here is "The Dance Isn't Over"( which is inspired by the TV Girl - Lovers Rock sample "The Dance is Over") I loveee the sample so much, and I wanted to make something a bit more upbeat that would suit the end of an afterparty, or the morning coffee depending on which feeling you get when you listen :) 

I hope you enjoy, I have SO much more coming so soon which I can't wait to share <3 

This track will be available through bandcamp shortly! x


Love, 
Dave x

A Deeper Life…

After over a decade of making music, we’re finally releasing our debut album A Deeper Life on May 9th 2025, on our very own imprint In Dust We Trust.

What started as an idea in 2020, during a period of stagnation for us and so many others, grew into something that felt within reach. Demos were refined, and Beans was producing more music than ever. Then, as our intense touring schedule resumed, we never anticipated we’d find the time to complete the project.

This album has been a labor of love—it’s more than just an album for us. It’s a love letter to our home country New Zealand; to our bond as brothers, to our family and friends that have supported us since the start; and to the laid-back way of life that shaped who we are today. But it’s also a journey through the global sounds that we’ve fallen in love with over the years.

Today we’re dropping the first single from the album, Love Language, featuring our fellow Kiwi and regular collaborator, the legendary Nathan Haines, on saxophone. We poured so much of ourselves into this track, and we hope you can feel that when you hear it.

This is an immensely proud moment for Beans and I. Never in our wildest dreams could we have imagined that when we relocated to London from Auckland in 2012, not only would we one day release an album, but that it would turn into a full-time career, giving us the chance to travel the world and meet incredible people along the way. We owe so much of this success to those who have continued to support us, and we hope this musical offering excites you as much as it does us.

Peace and love,
Louis and Beans
