Premiere: Milwaukee Banks – ’Influences’ mixtape

Edo and Dyl share an exclusive mix in the lead-up to their new album release

Posted by

Local duo Milwaukee Banks have been putting in some serious work this year and are getting ready to unleash their new album early in 2016. The pair dropped their latest single ‘Faded’ last month, which has been well received, and they’re about to hit the promo trail with their national tour beginning this Friday in Melbourne. To get us geared up for their new project, Edo and Dyl have been generous enough to share with us an exclusive mixtape of their current sonic influences. Check out what the guys had to say about the mix below and make sure you’re playing this on repeat until the new album drops in the very near future.

“This mix is a collage of sounds and songs we dig, and stuff that we were either listening to, had an influence on a part of the album, or something or someone we actually have recorded or sampled for the album. We started writing and recording the album back in November 2014, and have been writing away and working on our sounds for the album since back then. The mix overall is a bit of a weird blend of Edo’s electronic tastes and Dyl’s rap flavours, something that I guess was the starting point of the whole MilwaukeeBanks project and writing together. We also want to shout out to our friend Gully Chaps who did production and worked on the album project with us, it wouldn’t sound the same without him. We can’t wait to share the album, it’s something we worked tirelessly on and think it’s really special, but until we can share the album, hopefully this mix gives people some ideas of what Milwaukee Banks is all about, and people who have seen us perform at any recent live shows will maybe get why some of the tracks are in this mix….enjoy Edo and Dyl.”

Milwaukee Banks’ new single ‘Faded’ is out now.
