Based out of Brisbane, Australia, Max Byrne is a young and talented artist/producer who makes chilled electronic music under the moniker Golden Vessel. Influenced by Flume, James Blake or Chet Faker, his smooth blend of down-tempo beats features elements of hip-hop, trap and soul, all laced in a pristine lo-fi sheen.
2016 was a big year for Golden Vessel with the roll-out of his incredible debut Before Sleep EP which saw him working with some very talented Australia artists such as Lastlings, Tom Eggert of MTNS, OKBADLANDS, Abraham Tilbury, and Woodes.
After taking his live show on the road late last year for his first headlining mini-tour, Max is already back in the studio working on his next round of releases and collaborations. His first single for 2017 is “Tell The Girl” featuring vocals by Emerson Leif and released in collaboration with Exist Recordings.
Melbourne based producer, singer and songwriter Elle Graham, better known as Woodes, has only been around for about two years but her beautifully crafted songs have caused many a head to turn. After the success of super catchy single “The Thaw”, the young artist released a 6-track self-titled EP featuring older tracks and dazzling new tune “Poison”, which was co-produced by Brisbane artist Golden Vessel and Melbourne’s own Elkkle
A few days ago Woodes shared “Bonfire” via her SoundCloud. This new unreleased track was written, co-produced, performed and arranged by Woodes and Rob Kleiner, with additional percussion by Elkkle. It combines Graham’s poetic lyrics with a clever mix of tribal drums and subtle synths.
Woodes is the moniker for 24-year-old Melbourne based producer, singer and songwriter Elle Graham, whose quick ascension into the limelight has caused many a head to turn. After the success of her debut solo single “Daggers & Knives” (over 120,000 views on YouTube and solid airplay on Triple j unearthed and FBi Radio), Woodes recently shared new track “The Thaw” which was co-written and co-produced by fellow Melbournian artist LANKS.
“The Thaw” is another powerfully beautiful track, which combines Graham’s poetic lyrics with a clever mix of textured synths and subtle beats. She is currently collaborating with local and international artists including Kilter, Milwaukee Banks, Set Mo, Kintaro, FØRD and Golden Vessel on some new tunes and she has a remix EP just out for “The Thaw”.
