Coming in hot from his recent single ‘Falling Out,’ local producer Golden Features has announced his biggest tour yet.
Having played Splendour in the Grass, Field Day and colossal festival stages across the globe, Golden Features has recently upgraded his headline show into a full-blown spectacle, and fans will be able to experience it in full when he heads across the country this August.
Hordern Pavilion and Eatons Hill are some of the venues that he’ll be playing, indicating that this will be a sizeable step up from his previous headline shows – and with a debut album Sect dropping on July 13, this will be a fine way to showcase new material from one of Australia’s favourite dancefloor-movers.
“This album was written around the concept that exclusion forces outliers together in a most beautiful way. Musically my influences are extremely varied. Everything from post-punk and to QOTSA and AIR. Production wise my love for early Ed Banger is worn on my sleeve. I keep reaching back to that 2007 era when producers weren’t all crabs in a bucket, fighting to counterfeit the latest hit,” Golden Features says.
“I abandoned a lot of software in favour of hardware as an attempt to limit sound design possibilities, and more importantly I settled on an ethos for the entire record. It’s simple. Underneath all of the production flex, does the song stand on its own? I’ve changed through writing this and I don’t think I could have achieved what I wanted if I hadn’t.”
There are also some special guests yet to be announced, so the ‘Sect’ tour is certainly shaping up to be a big one. Tickets are going on sale from Friday, April 6 at 10:00am local time – click here to cop yours, and see the dates below:
