Biography
Australian production duo Jeff & Jonathan Hansen aka Ekko & Sidetrack have steadily become one of the most exciting up-and-coming duos within drum & bass. With features on Liquicity, Viper, UKF, Circus Records and Axtone and support from the likes of Sub Focus, Wilkinson, Pendulum, NOISIA & Dimension among others they are quickly making a name with their euphoric take on dance music.
Originally from Perth, the brothers are currently enjoying the most prolific run of their career. In 2020 they released their vocal tour de force ‘Paper Birds’ featuring Ruth Royall (2+ mil online streams), a Flume endorsed bootleg of his track ‘Rushing Back’ and collaborated with New Zealand mainstays Lee Mvtthews on ShockOne’s imprint Dark Machine records.
After reuniting in down under after a short stint of being split between Europe and Australia in 2021 – they released ‘Connected’ which coincided with their biggest sold-out headline show at The Court in Perth (1,200 cap), went on to remix local legend What So Not’s single ‘The Change’ and then closed out the year with euphoric hit single ‘I Feel Your Love’.
They kicked off 2022 in dynamic fashion with an official remix of ‘Still Sleepless’ by DOD & Carla Munroe on Axwell’s label Axtone; which has picked up support from Charlie Hedges & Rene LaVice on BBC Radio 1. A European tour followed then the boys locked themselves away to create their debut album, “Nostalgic For Reality” which just dropped on July 21. There has never been a better time to get acquainted with Ekko & Sidetrack.
