Dance was Austin’s first connection to music, and getting his audience to move with him is always the goal. As a child, Austin would stand in front of the TV and learn the choreography to songs like Ciara’s “1, 2 Step.” Growing up, he was immersed in a diverse array of music through his family, listening to everything from 60s Soul and 80s Funk to 70s Punk and 2K Drum ‘n Bass. Austin’s grandfather, a local DJ in Wichita, KS, left a lasting impression on him as he mixed tracks at family reunions and burned mixtapes onto CDs for everyone.
Austin’s journey into music production began after befriending a producer at a donut shop in Providence, RI. Over the next 5-6 years, he honed his sound and developed a unique style. In 2020, while living in Tokyo, Austin started learning how to DJ. Later that year, he moved to Atlanta, which further positioned him into diverse music scenes around the world.
With a Bachelor’s in Visual Arts from Brown University and a Master’s of Science in Human-Computer Interaction from Georgia Tech, Austin’s practice is rooted in a research-driven experience design process. Each iteration of development makes his practice an exciting channel for delivering holistic experiences that engage audiences in innovative ways through analogue, embedded, and virtual technologies.
