COPYCATT

Since his first release in 2015 COPYCATT quickly gained a cult following for his signature bass music cocktail - a combination of 90’s hip hop inspired grooves, hard hitting snares and growls and bone-rattling sub basses. His potent catalog of hard hitters has him on the forefront of the next wave of bass music, attracting the support of renowned artists such as Pretty Lights, Subtronics, Mr. Carmack and Haywyre. With his energetic sound COPYCATT unites Old school hip hop fans and new wave bass music heads.

Citing a broad array of influences like J Dilla, King Krule and Skrillex, COPYCATT’s multi-faceted catalog has gained him broad recognition from electronic music heavyweights like Pretty Lights, Slander, Tipper, Subtronics, and Zeds Dead, alongside support from major broadcast channels such as BBC and Triple J. No matter what style he delivers, COPYCATT’s affinity for catchy grooves, aggressively low-end-heavy sound design and highly-regarded drum production remain the recogniseable thread in his coveted twist on electronic music.

In 2023, demand for COPYCATT’s unique approach on bass music brought from his hometown in Queensland onto some of the United States’ most esteemed venues such as Colorado’s Red Rocks and Alabama’s Orion Amphitheatre slotting onto support bills for EDM staples like Slander, Tipper and Ganja White Night, where his high-energy and engaging aura on stage had him dubbed as a highlight by many. While serving a heavily US hip-hop influenced sound, one remaining thing analogous to his Australian roots is his jovial, sometimes irreverent energy on stage, with dry humor and the occasional “shoey” being common reports among attendees. COPYCATT’s self-ascribed “punk-inspired” approach to performance has earned him a reputation as a “must-see” act this year.
