Born out of desperation in the brutal Canadian winter of 2009, Robert Alfons and Maya Postepski began writing songs about nostalgia, lust, and erotomania. TRUST combine dark synth arpeggios, live and programmed drum beats with haunting, effected vocals. What begins in the genre of minimal synth progresses into a sort of slow-techno that is equal parts introspective cold-wave and extroverted 808 dance beats. Their debut video directed by Eva Michon, shows a playful side to the duo as they ride around nature on a motorbike together, later though, it hints at the pair’s darker undercurrent when an Equus inspired incident unfolds. “Candy Walls” is a gorgeous and unapologetically sexual debut, which will be heavily blogged about. It’s an undeniable beat matched with a stunning and unique aesthetic.
DZ Deathrays
In late 2011 Brisbane duo DZ Deathrays entered White Room studios with Richard Pike (of PVT) to record their debut album Bloodstreams, what the band came out with was 14 tracks which have since been praised unanimously by fans and critics around the world. Having been given the tick of approval by magazines like NME, Kerrang, Rolling Stone to name a few, DZ Deathrays took to the main cities of Australia delivering their ferocious live show which left fans begging for more. The band are currently half way through an extensive European tour before they head to the USA for a six week tour with BASS DRUM OF DEATH (Fat Possum Records) and will then return to Australia to appear on Splendour in the Grass, Spin Off Festival and a few key sideshows.
