A few months ago, when we first stumbled across the cinematic sounds of Wayne Neilson, we were immediately captivated. Neilson creates mini-universes within each of his songs – they transport you to another place and time.
Now, with the release of his new EP Destination Earth, Neilson continues to build upon his skills in composition and musical arrangement. The result is something truly special.
On his incredible new EP Destination Earth, Tasmanian composer Wayne Neilson will take you on a journey through immersive sonic landscapes.
Throughout the new EP, Neilson journeys through a unique blend of orchestral sounds to craft a brand of music that belongs entirely to himself. While his music belongs to a niche market, Neilson has no plans of stopping.
“Even though I love current popular styles including indie-rock, songwriter, EDM etc… I find that I need to leave those styles to all the amazing and talented songwriters and producers who excel in those styles,” he says.
“I try to remain authentic to what I feel I can specialise in and love doing.”
Across Destination Earth‘s five-track duration, you’ll be led through myriad landscapes – from small medieval villages to the corners of the universe. By the time the EP reaches its conclusion, you’ll have been roped in completely to Wayne Neilson’s sprawling sounds.
