Née à Naarm/Melbourne et vit désormais à Londres, la productrice Surusinghe puisse ses influences dans des sonorités internationales, percussives et innonvantes. Ses sets très énergiques et ses tubes, lui ont permis d’être programmée dans les meilleurs dancefloors d’Europe (Panorama Bar, Garage Noord, Printworks, Sub Club, ainsi que dans les festivals Field Day, Lost Village, Snowbombing, FLY Open Air…
Son premier EP, sorti en août dernier sur le label Steel City Dance Discs, a reçu des critiques dithyrambiques et le soutien des plus grands noms de la musique électronique tels que Jamie xx, HAAi et VTSS. Un projet qui a tourné dans tous les festivals estivaux, Resident Advisor allant jusqu’à déclarer «GO TO» dans sa liste des meilleurs morceaux du festival Draaimolen puis Mixmag qui place «HEAVEN» dans ses meilleurs morceaux de 2022. Des retours qui consolident la position de Surusinghe en tant qu’étoile montante de la scène électronique.
Début 2023 et l’artiste est déjà nommée dans les 100 artistes émergents de 2023 du NME, avec une tournée australienne de bouclée et sold-out, ainsi qu’une résidence sur RINSE.
2023, c’est aussi un nouvel EP sur Steel City Dance Discs qui arrive, «Get Flutey». Le premier single, «Likshot», est un brûlot de sound-system et donne le ton pour la suite : un projet plus personnel et plus audacieux qui ne manquera pas de faire de Surusinghe l’une des artistes émergentes les plus intransigeantes de la musique de danse.

Meet Surusinghe, the genre-bending producer known for her innovative and percussive, bass-driven music. Born in Naarm/Melbourne and now residing in London, she has a unique blend of international influences that is reflected in her sound. Surusinghe’s high energy sets and dynamic sound has sen her being booked at some of Europe’s finest dancefloors such as Panorama Bar, Garage Noord, Printworks, Sub Club and Koko, and festivals Field Day, Waterworks, Lost Village, Snowbombing, FLY Open Air and Dialled In.
Her debut EP was released last August via seminal label Steel City Dance Discs to rave reviews and support by some of electronic music’s leading tastemakers such as Jamie xx, HAAi and VTSS. The EP soon became a firm favourite for DJ’s during the summer festival circuit with Resident Advisor going as far as to declare ‘GO TO’ in their list of best tracks at Draaimolen Festival, and Mixmag featuring club-standout ‘HEAVEN’ in their top tracks of 2022, solidifying Surusinghe’s position as a rising star in the electronic scene.
With 2023 holding no signs of slowing down, Surusinghe kicked off the year by being listed in NME’s 100 Essential Emerging Artists of 2023 before embarking on an 8-date homecoming tour of Australia that included a sold out Meanjin/Brisbane show at CYBER, and has been announced as one of RINSE radio’s newest residents.
Surusinghe is gearing up for her return to Steel City Dance Discs with her forthcoming ‘Get Flutey’ EP, which acts as a «testimony to the new and old sounds» that she loves and demonstrates an explosive progression of sound inspired by the two years spent back in clubs. The EP has been road tested from Melbourne to London, and in the process has been received with devastating results. Lead single ‘Likshot’ is a sound-system bruiser, and sets the tone for ‘Get Flutey’; an EP that is set to be Surusinghe’s most personal, and audacious project to date, and certain to cement Surusinghe as the pick of dance music’s uncompromising emerging talents.
