Skeleten is music for the moment. The Sydney producer / multi-instrumentalist (real name Russell Fitzgibbon) is a master at building a space for the listener to step out of time. Today he’s launched into 2023 with “Teenager Of The Year”, reworking Lo-Tel’s ‘Looking For Alibrandi’ classic into a nostalgic yet modern twist on drum and bass - a self-professed “dedication to the youth”.
For years Fitzgibbon has been enmeshed in Sydney’s underground dance / indie scene – turning heads for his euphoric electronic, pop sonics and immersive live experience. Skeleten emerged out of a need to experiment and make music without worrying about the outcome. As the project has evolved, he aims to make music that will bring people together, and create an atmosphere of elation.
Since the project’s upstart, Skeleten has earned early support from the likes of Logic1000, Hot Chip, DJ Seinfeld and praise from the likes of BBC Music, XLR8R, Dummy Mag, NME Australia and triple J. Stay tuned for more to come Summer 2023 via 2MR (North America) and Astral People (ROW).
