Cousin is an artist whose work bridges dub techno, progressive house, and trance with subtle nods to breaks and drum & bass. Closely aligned with NAFF label, he shares a detailed, atmospheric approach grounded in deep rhythm and analog warmth.

Originally from Sydney, Cousin has become a key voice in Australia’s leftfield electronic scene, releasing on labels such as Animalia while forging strong ties with international communities. His recent joint EP with Priori exemplifies this cross-hemisphere connection—dubby, spacious techno built with precision and emotional depth.

Cousin’s live sets and DJ performances shift fluidly across tempos, combining tactile sound design with a strong sense of momentum. His adaptability and focus on mood have made him a standout presence in clubs and festivals across North America, Europe, and Asia.

Cousin debuts his new live set for the first time in Canada, featuring unreleased material previously performed in New York and at the Sydney Opera House. Blending dub techno, progressive house, and break-inflected grooves, his analog-rich performance builds deep, hypnotic rhythms with immersive, finely crafted sound design.
