"This self-produced single is filled with otherworldly vocals and appealing baselines - The sound is reminiscent of bands like Tame Impala, Radiohead and Massive Attack - Yet is still fresh and inspiring to the times." - @AudibleAddixion

Dark Side of Light is a soundchild of the nouveau California scene. Natives, Nik Frost and Grant Conway birthed this tangerine slice of novel, tripped-out-folk-hop to counteract the anxiety-filled hours of our new normal.

Tired of searching for something fresh and new, they burrowed into a deep, sonic exploration to make a sound of their own. “We didn’t want to be a traditional band,” says Frost, “ so we started writing from the genesis of beats and rhythm tracks that we thought were cool.” Conway is a drummer by nature and a producer/engineer by trade. Put this up against Frost, a singer/songwriter/DJ who’s worked with everyone from Malcolm McLaren to Photek, and the duo were bound to come up with something fresh and inspiring.

Frost calls on melodies, harmonies and psychedelic lyrics which harken back to everything from the early 70’s Robert Fripp-produced pop of The Roches to CSN&Y. Conway’s broken, poppy/nouveau trip-hop grooves never disappoint. As most of the songs originated from the beats, Conway’s playing shines through on every groove, never pretentious, true to vibe, and never thirsty for attention.

Dark Side of Light recently released their self produced-and-conceived video for the first single, a cover of Seals and Crofts’ “Yacht Rock” classic, “Summer Breeze.” Fans of Tame Impala, Broken Bells and Beach Fossils, will get down to this fresh new duo.

"Indie Rock dream poppy sounds with vocals that have great similarities to (my favourite)
Chino Moreno of Deftones. Check out this track by Dark Side of Light!" - @FromTheStrait

"Unashamedly heavy on the drums, this track intertwines some dark synths with some semi-falsetto and sometimes autotuned vocals with crunchy bass arpeggios to create a sound that is both intriguing and infectious in equal measures" - It's Indie (And We Know It)
