A self-taught producer whose interest was piqued by video game soundtracks, Whiston has been evolving his sound since he was 12. Among his credits is helping to co-produce Taiwanese rapper Aristophanes’ mixtape ‘Humans Become Machines’ alongside Grimes and Jam City. Cop his debut EP for unexpected, deconstructed sounds.
