Known for infusing his productions with soulful textures and emotive grit, Altercation has become a regular on festival lineups across the country. Erin G moves fluidly between alt-indie and electronic, with a writing style that’s intimate, sharp, and sonically adventurous.
Reflecting on how the project came to be, Erin shares:
“Joel and I met five years ago and we’ve been on each other’s radar, saying we’d make music together. So the plan to collaborate has been in the works for some time. We wrote the EP online, sending each other audio files over a couple of months until the project was ready for release! I was in Auckland and he was in Queenstown, and we’ve become very good friends through this project. We’re both busy working on our own solo projects… so this liquid DnB collaboration has been the breather we’ve both needed to expand our creativity and working flow.”
Together, they craft an EP that’s cinematic and immersive. Earlier singles “Kind Eyes,” “Half Light,” and “Dream It Again” hinted at their artistic alignment, while the full release reveals a deeper synergy.
“Written with purpose and trust,this project is a reflection of our different lived experiences.”- Altercation
