With his passion for darker music and his seamless mixing skills, BANDO has a sound that is uniquely him - driving, deep and organic. No stranger to a damn goo...d party, BANDOs’ well curated, diverse sounding sets have seen him play for a range of local crews across Melbournes’ thriving club scene. Weaving dark sounds with his trademark relentless bass vibrations - while being strongly influenced by Brazilian & Bush techno, he also creates deep progressive / minimal sounding productions that really engage the crowd. BANDOs’ attention to detail extends seamlessly into his own productions, with his first EP now available through Angelo Dores’ label ‘Erase’. His passion for music and community led him towards running his own events, with ‘Flux’ in Phillip Island hosting some of his favourite international artists - and his new monthly event ‘Protocol’.

"A decline in my mental health led to darker and more experimental styles of music resonating with me, helping me to move through the negative headspace I was in and shedding light in my dark space. So many experiences that I have had because of music have been pivotal points in my life. I wish to create these experiences for other people through my feelings. When a new genre or style of music resonates with me, it feels like it opens my mind and amplifies my love for myself, my existence, my path. I believe that when people are playing music for you, there is a two-way exchange of energy where someone can make you feel their experiences through their music. A temple of you. I hope that as I travel this path, I continue to inspire myself and others, through the love of music.” - Ellie Walsh.
