Loraine James and Arushi Jain

Hailing from North London, Loraine James has been releasing DIY-style dance music since 2017. She’s done wide-ranging collaborations with the likes of Uruguayan producer Lila Tirando a Violeta, Iranian-British rapper Tardist and Melbourne’s own Jonnine Standish from HTRK.

She's joined by co-headliner, Arushi Jain. Jain is a modular synthesist, singer, producer, radio host and engineer with an unorthodox vision of a centuries-old tradition — one that’s electronic and resolutely DIY. She grew up in Delhi, where she was exposed to Indian classical and other regional music from a young age. Her latest album Under the Lilac Sky builds a meditative momentum that feels like sonic starlight. Now she’s bringing her lush, night-sky sound to RISING.

In support is Vietnamese-Australian synthesist, composer and pianist Carolyn Schofield, aka Fia Fiell.

Part of RISING.
