Perth based electronic duo Fourth State Turiya are a collaboration between vocalist/songwriter Leah Miche and producer/composer Edoardo Moriconi. Forming in early 2018 they have effortlessly produced a timeless trip hop, electro, pop sound.
Performing with a combination of sequencers, live percussion, guitar, analogue synthesisers, loop’s and Ableton, Fourth State’s live show is a captivation journey creating simple yet expansive landscapes with infectious melodies and soaring vocals.
After the release of their debut single ‘Sink Or Swim’ Fourth State have gained a lot of attention both locally and nationally.
Having recently signed to Sydney based recording studio ‘The Rumble’ for the ‘Young Tribe’ initiative, their track was also featured in the top 10 Picks Of The Week on Double J and Spotify and was featured on ‘2018’ by Richard Kingsmill. Sink or Swim will also be featured in the new West Australian drama ‘The Heights” on the ABC.
Drawing on the influence of 90’s trip hop artists such as Lamb, Massive Attack and Portishead, Fourth State emphasise on dynamic’s and simplicity rather that pop hooks and rushed arrangements.
Ed’s experience and refined skill in electronic production combined with Leah’s indie/folk singer/songwriter background intertwines beautifully and creates a natural organic workflow and prolific songwriting.
