Bio

As n1ghtmar3cat, Dave Johnston (Villainy) delivers an immersive debut single from his forthcoming self-titled album. Lost and Found highlights the many distinct yet impeccably integrated facets of his production, composition and songwriting arsenal.

The captivating debut single draws listeners in through a textural, bass-driven sonic experience – which at times takes centre stage, while at others perfectly undercurrents Johnston’s sleek, hook-laden vocals.

“I wanted the production style to weave in with the lyrical themes”, says Johnston. “The track deals with feelings of uncertainty and anxiety within a relationship, and the changes in instrumental energy aim to draw you into that headspace.”

With influences ranging from Jon Hopkins to Flume, Purity Ring, Moderat and Alison Wonderland, Lost and Found is a confident debut single that hints at the distorted, character-rich album set to follow. Straddling an impressive territory between production and pop songwriting, it will prove essential listening for those partial to a solid chorus, while testing the limits of every sound system.
