dstnce

Dstnce is a 2-piece electronic group based out of Los Angeles, CA creating experimental, bass-driven tracks with an ambient and melodic overtone reminiscent of the early days of Massive Attack fused with Kiasmos out of Iceland. Classically-trained drummer/producer, Clinton Van Arnam and LA singer/keyboardist, Melanie deJesus, formed dstnce in 2013 after a chance meeting brought the two together through the discovery of their mutual affinity for a wide range of influences from Nicolas Jaar and Aphex Twin to Radiohead, Sigur Ros, and Beach House. To follow the 2015 release of their debut EP, DRUGS, dstnce draws inspiration from their travels as they continue to write and evolve, steadily working towards an audio/visual performance and more mini EP releases in 2016.
