About Me

I edited my profile with Thomas' Myspace Editor V4.4
‘Holding Pattern’ is ‘intriguing and unique’ with ‘beautiful emotive vocals and darkwave stylings…With their no limits approach to delicate situations, Dizzygotheca are edgy and unafraid of trying something different.’
Rave Magazine review of Holding Pattern
‘an enigmatic soundscape of light and dark…a bittersweet ride’.
Scene Magazine review of Holding Pattern
‘...nothing short of beautiful'
Scout TV review of Holding Pattern
‘A beautiful illusion surrounded by electronic sound…'
Bloodline242 (Japan) review of Holding Pattern
‘Dizzygotheca’s haunting, delicate electronica is comparable to both trip-hop and ambient post-industrial. Heidi Millington’s in-tune vocals were refreshing to the ears, harshly contrasted by off-beat distorted drum samples.”
Rave Magazine live review
***
Dizzygotheca’s first EP ‘Holding Pattern’ is now available online, on itunes and at local record stores! In hand printed recycled card sleeves each one is unique!
***
DIZZYGOTHECA, Brisbane’s darkwave darlings, create their intriguing ‘ghostcore’ sound by layering Heidi’s beautiful, haunting vocals with Anthony’s electronic beats, found sounds and darkwave stylings. They play melodies and triggered beats in realtime rather than totally sequenced, using hardware not laptops. They sound like the fey and creative children of Kate Bush and Aphex Twin.
Their live shows are renowned for often startling costuming, creative visual collaborations, enigmatic stage presence and high energy; more and more music lovers are switching on to DIZZYGOTHECA’s unique, adventurous and beautiful electronic sound, and intelligent and thoughtful lyrics.
Their songs explore their own shimmery vision of the world’s dark and light shades, ranging from soft, cinematic soundscapes to pop tinged, glitchy dance beats. They sing of love, truth, madness, hope, nature and machinery, in our complex world.
With appearances at festivals like Pride, Vibewire, Straight out of Brisbane, Next Level and 4ZzZ Market Day, releasing their first EP, and their song ‘I Heart Robots’ coming in at 34 in local radio 4ZzZ’s Hot 100 of 2007, good things are store for DIZZYGOTHECA.
