Ainonow is an interdisciplinary and enigmatic artist focused on electronic music production. His musical journey began playing the viola in an orchestra at the age of nine, where he began to fall in love with music. However, the classical world alone was not enough to satisfy his musical curiosity. Swirling in and out of bands while playing bass guitar, he experimented with different styles until eventually discovering underground electronic music and hip hop. Inspired by the hypnotic beats and hard-hitting bass of these genres, he dove into electronic music production and the infinite timbres permitted by this new approach to music creation. On his critically acclaimed, debut two-track EP Exile Ainonow showcased some of his range in the genre of drum & bass starting out with the title track Exile, an industrial, raw, and ruthlessly rhythmic minimal jungle track. The second track of the EP, Triturate, then launches into a meticulously layered, high energy neurofunk song that holds nothing back. He followed up his debut release with Bedlam, a deep neuro drum & bass song blending sinister soundscapes with aggressive beats and haunting melodies, alongside fellow artist Slaythoven. Now, he has released yet another single, Forlorn, a liquid roller drum & bass track that plays heavily with tension and release, combining intricate beats and ambient textures. With such a diverse background and range of influences, Ainonow's tracks traverse a broad spectrum of sonic landscapes. Combining elements of dark and heavy drum & bass, broken beat halftime and experimental bass music, he takes his listeners on a musical journey soaked in organic textures. As one of the most forward-thinking, rising artists in the world of underground electronic music, Ainonow’s music speaks to the power of experimentation and the limitless possibilities of creative expression.

Opiuo is a genre-bending plethora of auditory and visual masterclasses. Positivity and movement are at the core of the project, and his music is an infectious electronic based blend of funk, soul, psychedelia, and booty-shaking bass.

Born in 1984 in rural New Zealand, his parents provided the land upon which music festivals were held. This extremely formative growth, surrounded by the early incarnations of Aotearoa’s electronic music scene, exposed him to the celebration of life through self-expression, dance, and giant sound systems. These experiences shaped so much of who he is & what he stands for today.

Now calling Australia home, Oscar tours his party-starting music throughout the globe. Having spent more than a decade performing at some of the world's most renowned festivals and venues, including Lollapalooza, Glastonbury, and Coachella, as well as selling out Colorado’s Red Rocks Amphitheatre, he’s performed his music in an unimaginably large array of formats. From his self-built orchestras to symphonic choirs, touring his own Opiuo Band, and as an immersive solo audio & visual show, his live creativity is limitless.

Taking home the New Zealand Music Award for Best Electronic Album in 2014, his catalogue is vast. Having released 5 full-length albums, 10 EPs, and a myriad of singles and remixes over the last 14 years. His latest album is a live recording from his legendary sold out performance at the iconic Red Rocks Amphitheatre, with The Opulent Orchestra, in May 2023.
