Bio

L D R U is 21 year old Drew Carmody from Sydney's northern beaches whose tropical sounds have been well received the world over. With remixes for Lorde, Flume, Miami Horror, Yesyou and the Ashton Shuffle already, L D R U is one to watch out for.

His debut release 'The Tropics, through Sydney label Future Classic, getting spins on Triple J and FBi radio as well as being hand picked by Triple J's Nina Las Vegas for the House Party 2 mix. 'The Tropics' has now clocked over 151,000 plays on SoundCloud and 43,000 on YouTube and remixed by in demand Perth producer Ta-Ku. The accompanying music video was featured on Potato – Skrillex, A-Trak and Diplo's YouTube channel.

His remix for Lorde's track The Love Club was out in July 2013 and clocked 300,000 SoundCloud plays within the first month (one month before Lorde started blowing up on the USA charts). The remix is now sitting at 450,000 plays on SoundCloud and 250,000 on YouTube. L D R U has also just completed remixes for Flume, Miami Horror, Yesyou and the Ashton Shuffle. L D R U has toured Australia nationally and parts of Asia and the Pacific and will be playing the upcoming Stereosonic national festival in November 2013.

L D R U's next original is due late October as well as his remix for Flume which will be out 8 November as part of the deluxe edition of the Flume album.

“L D R U has slammed a comfortably cool interpretation that has plenty of pitchy-ness to the vocals, cool drums and kicks as creating cool pre southern hemispere summer vibes.” - Stoney Roads

“L D R U drops one hell of a mix of Lorde and her track ‘Love Club’.  This track is mighty fine and the remix is what we’ve been waiting for.  Gold!” - Your Music Radar

“…Sydney-native L D R U tones the track down to a groovin’ head-bobbing lullaby, with a simple soaring chord progression propelling the 16 year-old’s vocals to a near ‘let go of your handlebars and backflip off your bicycle’ sort of level.” - Salacious Sound

“By swelling breezy synths around Lorde’s heavenly vocals, L D R U builds on the original by giving it a summery new look.” - Hilly Dilly
