Western Sydney’s very own Dylan Atlantis creates intimate tracks to make you feel good while exploring all the little facets life has to offer. The 22-year-old is a singer, songwriter, producer and musician, with breezy tracks that have garnered recognition from fellow artists such as Knxwledge. Their music is a blend of smooth RnB and lofi grunge, drawing inspiration from masters like Frank Ocean, J Dilla, Last Dinosaurs and The Jungle Giants.

A meticulous songwriter, producer and multi-instrumentalist, Chelsea Warner fuses slick beats with clever lyricism from her home studio in Sydney, Australia. At age 20, she is cultivating her own lane of conscious alt-R&B, exploring self, girlhood and growth in amongst navigating the odd existential crisis. Having collaborated with artists such as Urthboy, Vetta Borne, Nardean and Liyah Knight, she pays homage to 90s hip-hop & R&B with crafty hooks and characteristic beats.

Zion Garcia’s approach to hip-hop is one of raw talent. Finding rare pockets and infectious cadences, his lyrical prowess comes stronger atop his jazzy left-field production. Inspired by his Tongan-Spanish heritage, Garcia stays true to his roots by maintaining a community mind while creating internationally palatable music. Full Circle is his communal creative battery, a group of like-minded Western Sydney artists including Nick Ward, Sollyy, Dylan Atlantis, FRIDAY* and Breakfast Road, coming together as a sum greater than its parts.

As the tide in Australian music culture shifts, a collective of emerging local artists are shaping a contemporary sound on our shores. Central Coast bred, Eora based artist Boy Soda is an undisputed leader in this new school of thought, utilising R&B and intricately crafted pop music to captivate his swiftly growing audience. As his sonic footprint began to grow after bursting onto the scene in 2019, the world stopped due to the great pause. Rather than halting alongside it, he utilised the time to create his debut EP THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THINKING AND FEELING, a conceptual wonderland of love, lust, self reflection, wrapped in a glaze of sugary pop melodies, grandiose production and a truly singular style that is impossible to pigeonhole, but perfect to listen to.

Sydney based songwriter, producer and performer Ruby Jackson has positioned herself at the heart of the Australian R&B/Jazz scene. Since completing her studies in composition at The Sydney Conservatorium of Music, Ruby has been flourishing into a world-class, authentic creator of music with songs that strike a chord with her audience. This can be traced back to November 2022, when Jackson was selected as FBI radio’s Independent Artist of the week for her release ‘Get Around To It’, which quickly became a crowd pleaser for its smooth & classy Alternative R&B touch.
