About the Artist

Low Frequency Occupation on Australia’s Festival Mushroom Records label, is a project spawned from the musical backrooms of the Brothers Evans. It is a collective of music created by those brought up on the electronic / dance CD ‘best ofs’ – the compilation generation.

Andy and Glen Evans put Low Frequency Occupation together for one reason only, 'We just wanted to make music that people could dance to', says Glen. 'I feel what we are trying to do is take people on journeys with our music. We delve into a lot of different styles but the constant is that all tracks are groove based. We see the tracks as separate modules that hook together to make one big HI FI.'

While their music is indicative of a club/DJ background, the guys are quick to point out they couldn’t spin a disc to save themselves!

'We are musicians first and foremost,' says Andy. 'I play everything except bass and Glen plays everything except guitar, and we enlist the help of friends for vocal duties when we don’t think ours will suit the style of the track.' Although not DJs, the boys have found a realm in the world of remixing both locally and internationally, having recently worked remixes for local act Machine Gun Fellatio and Universal Hong Kong pop artist Ding Fei Fei.

The starting point in the Low Frequency Occupation journey is a popping little vocal house track entitled “Back to You”. It started as a beat, bass and vocal demo’d track and then slowly took a new shape with help from Christine on vocal duties and Jeremy Allom (Massive Attack, Cold Cut, Bomb The Bass) tweaking the console.
