I fell in love with Oliver's music when I heard the dreamiest sounds around via an emotionally charged sonic masterpiece, Open Season, The song was written in collaboration with Jack Milas, his partner in the Australian duo HIGH HIGHS.

Oliver's music has evolved tremendously over the years, weaving in and out of the dream pop space into dance, techno, house, industrial and ultimately some of the most lovely vibey music around.

His current projects, Animal Feelings, Fancy Feelings, and Jungle Feelings... (yes there are 3 different 'Feelings' projects) are wildly different and yet all of these projects have found ways to converge back on the strengths of his songwriting and approach to melody.

I'm so grateful that Oliver not only gave me the opportunity to speak to him and share his thoughts with you, but that he's become my friend over the last 5 years. He's a truly special human who loves our planet and has great hopes for the world and all the species that live within it.

This is my interview with the impeccable songwriter, Oliver Chang, on the Rockstar Superhero podcast.
