An underground afrobeat act.
Born out of a deep love for the dancefloor, Wrong Way Up channel vintage Afro disco and psychedelic boogie to bring a new kind of heat. Paying homage to Frances Bebey, William Onyeabor and Lijadu Sisters, the Melbourne-based Afro-synth duo delivers energetic melodies, deep grooves and addictive chants – led by a less-is-more manifesto. Featuring quirky synthesizers and 1970s drum machines, the result is a sonic landscape that feels fresh and unique, yet somehow familiar. It this heady mix that ensures Wrong Way Up (comprising vocalist Emma D and songwriter/producer ADP) is the right way to get down.
