BIO
The idea for the domain was formed in 2020, the idea was for a production project but the genre and format was unknown and what ensued was an ongoing exploration and experimentation which continues to the present. The specific genre niche continues to be elusive and the artist continues to grow and sound continues to evolve.
The Domain is not just an electronic music producer; he is a sonic explorer, fearlessly traversing the landscapes of Indie Dance, Synth Pop, Deep House, Classic Hip Hop, and beyond. His music is a seamless fusion of genres, creating a cohesive journey that evokes nostalgia while pushing the boundaries of the future.
From an early age, The Domain was captivated by the power of music. At just 11 years old, he picked up a rock guitar, and by 14, he was studying music at university with a specialty in guitar performance. Without a guitar to play, after becoming homeless, his love for 70’s soul and classic Hip Hop eventually led him to rapping and producing Hip Hop albums in his teens. Releasing several acclaimed Aussie Hip Hop albums, he headlined iconic venues and gained nationwide radio play. As the heyday of Aussie Hip Hop’s golden era faded, he eventually felt the urge to delve into a field less restricted in terms of audience and format and transitioned his creative juices towards exploring new musical territories.
This evolution led to the birth of his solo project, "The Domain," inspired by the Roswell alien interview. The Domain's music is a unique blend of pop, house, and retro synth pop, characterized by authentic vocals and a production style that balances retro analog grittiness with modern polish. His sound is a refreshing departure from industry trends, favoring spontaneity and authenticity over the pursuit of virality.
The Domain is in the midst of making significant strides in the music industry. He has garnered early support from various reputable tastemakers, grabbed commercial radio rotation in his hometown Adelaide, and started booking festivals. His tracks have been featured on Spotify editorial playlists and playlists by Ultra Music and Spinnin’ Records. Additionally, his music has been highlighted in numerous influential blogs, including Earmilk.
​
The Domain's journey is marked by a commitment to uncensored sonic exploration and a reverence for the Musical Universe. His music is a tapestry of sound that defies classification. With a healthy dose of nostalgia, fun, and melancholy, The Domain's tracks are a step away from the mainstream, offering listeners an epic sonic journey that is both captivating and gracefully executed.
