Growing up in a musical inner-city household, indie-pop maestro Pluto Jonze had his mind blown early by
the music of the 1960s, developing an obsession he never ever grew out of.
Stints living in Berlin and Guatemala, a healthy penchant for the big pop
stylings of Bowie, The Beatles and Beck and an impressive track record
composing for stage and film have all contributed to the strange and exciting
elixir of other-worldly electro-pulse and laptop pop that is Pluto Jonze.
With two massive singles,
“Eject” and “Plastic Bag In A Hurricane”, getting high rotation on Triple J and
community radio stations around the country, Pluto Jonze has established
himself as a truly original and trailblazing artist. Coined as “a little bit Tame
Impala, a little bit Verve” – Pluto Jonze’s hook-laden tunes are drenched
with lush vocals, sequenced electronic lines, melody-soaked guitar and his
signature Theremin sound and backed by an explosive live 3-piece - this is what
the 60’s would’ve sounded like on another planet.
Add
to that the fact that he’s shared the stage with the likes of They Might Be
Giants, The Jezebels, Bluejuice, Jinja Safari, Buck 65, Vydamo and Dappled
Cities, as well as a 7-date co-headline Australian tour with trop-pop outfit
Cub Scouts, and it’s easy to understand the buzz around his name.
Pluto Jonze’s latest single -“Hispedangongonajelanguiro
(Capiche?)” follows up on Eject perfectly with his brand of catchy, quirky-pop
which is pushing the envelope like no other. With his debut album due on in
mid-2013, keep your eyes and
ears peeled for much, much more from this exciting talent.
“Pluto Jonze EP” & “Eject”
& “Hispedangongonajelanguiro (Capiche?)” are out now through StopStart.
