From: Australia

DJ style: Tech-house showman

Best known for: ‘Losing It’.

Famous for his big time, party-friendly tech-house, Australia’s very own FISHER continued to deliver gnarly dancefloor-destroying jams in 2022, kicking off with the fat acid licks and Palmer Brown’s ’Can You Dance To My Beat’ vocals on his ‘Palm Beach Banga’. MERYLL’s distinctive vocals brought a classy edge to his futurist tech jam ‘Yeah The Girls’ and he also turned in a tasty rework of Bob Sinclar’s 2006 sleek ‘World Hold On’ featuring Steve Edwards’ vocals too. However, it’s been the laser-synthism, velcro-sticky vocal hooks and precision engineered breakdowns of his Shermanology collab ‘It’s A Killa’ that’s been making the big waves this year, picking up huge play numbers and plenty of DJ support.

FISHER split his summer between a globe-trotting festival schedule that included appearances at Electric Island Season Finale, North Coast Music Festival, Creamfields, Elements Festival, Panorama Festival, FEST Festival, and playing Hï Ibiza, ending his season there with a stunning closing-party all-night set.
