About Hermitude
Hermitude is the duo of Luke Dubs and El Gusto, who grew up in the Blue Mountains west of Sydney and began working together around 2000. They are part of the Elefant Traks label family and also play in the hip-hop group The Herd.
Their instrumental tracks combine hip-hop drums, live keyboard playing and heavy, wobbling bass, sitting between beat music, trap and post-dubstep. HyperParadise won the Australian Music Prize in 2012, and a remix of its title track by Flume spread the duo's name further. Live, both members play keys, pads and samplers on stage.
