Cashmere Cat Announces Two Laneway Festival Sideshows

Norwegian producer/DJ/turntablist CASHMERE CAT, has already made a lasting impression with his acclaimed debut EP 'Mirror Maru' in 2012, and the future R’n’B leanings of his remix for Miguel’s ‘Do You’ to go alongside an impressive slew of DJ appearances across the globe.

CASHMERE CAT is now creating a buzz amidst rumours of some big name production work for Wiz Khalifa, Jeremih, Maroon 5 and hit maker Benny Blanco, coupled with the release of the ‘Wedding Bells’ EP, his first on Future Classic.

Heading to Australia off the back of a sell out Vivid headline show at Sydney's iconic Opera House in 2013, CASHMERE CAT will be appearing on the RBMA x Future Classic stage at Laneway Festival, as well as hitting kids with just-announced headline club shows in Melbourne at Liberty Social (6th Feb) and Sydney at Goodgod Small Club (7th Feb).

'With Me', the first track to be released from the EP, received its premiere on BBC Radio 1 and gave fans and taste of what's to come from the four tracker. Drawing his inspiration from R’n’B, touching on French electro, driven by the heavyweight bottom end of 00’s club Hip Hop – this is wide, cinematic and unabashedly bright new dance music. The title track ‘Wedding Bells’ sounds slightly heavier than his past hits, using a wide range of instruments that take you on a surreal ride.

Not dependent on vocalists, CASHMERE CAT’s own music is crammed full of smart melodic ideas and arrangement. Rarely does a new artist emerge with such a unique voice across their work. The producer is unconcerned with where he fits with DJs and is more influenced by Pop & Hip Hop than today’s stadium filling dance acts….but, his music is smarter for it.

‘Wedding Bells’ EP is available via Future Classic on Feb 10, PRE ORDER NOW.
