Australian Multi-Instrumental Duo Mixes It Up For Local Fans

Intergalactix

Intergalactix plays the Constellation Room Oct. 18 and Roxy Oct. 22

Meet Intergalactix, an Australian multi-instrumental electronic and production duo that recently released their awaited debut EP, IWSOM. The pair will be playing two shows; one at the Constellation Room on Oct. 18 and in LA at the Roxy on Oct. 22.

Intergalactix consists of collaborators and long time friends Serg Dimitrijevic and Kristian Attard. These two have been working on countless projects behind-the-scenes for over 10 years with big names from Cool & Dre to Ariana Grande to Allen Stone, Jason Mraz and Good Charlotte. Be sure to check out their dynamic live shows this fall on their upcoming tour.

The OC Concert Guide had the opportunity to speak with the duo regarding their title origin, upcoming projects and debut EP.

OCCG: How did you come up with your title? What’s the significance behind it? How did you guys meet?
Intergalactix: Our title basically reflects our interest in the possibilities of what may exist beyond what we know here on earth. We met in Sydney about 15 years ago playing music together.

OCCG: You have worked on various projects with some of today’s biggest artists from?
Intergalactix: Ariana Grande to Cool and Dre. How were those experiences? 
The experiences were obviously all very different but very inspiring to us as musicians and writers. I think being around such great artists and producers really helped us grow into who we are today.

OCCG: How was the transition of coming from Australia to America?
Intergalactix: At first it was tough but amazing, I think with any transition it takes some time to adjust and making new friends and starting over is always a challenge. We were quite established career wise in Australia but moving to the US opened up another world to us. Both countries are really great but for what we do the US feels right. We really love to visit Australia, as it’s definitely still our home.

OCCG: What do you want your listeners to gain out of your latest debut EP “IWSOM?”
Intergalactix: There are quite a few subliminal messages throughout the EP and people translate them in their own way, which is awesome to us because it makes the songs grow and have a life of their own. It’s our first release and I think it’s a good introduction to what we do. We are always working on new music and our style is evolving but I feel this is a great time stamp on where we have been at for the past few years.

OCCG: How did you know music is what you wanted to pursue and what inspired your genre?
Intergalactix: I knew music was what I wanted to do before I even remember knowing that I had a choice or even really had a chance to think about it. I was so young but I’m glad I stuck to it; I can’t imagine life without it today. Our genre is really just us being ourselves and fusing together everything we love.

OCCG: If you hadn’t pursued music, what would you be doing instead?
Intergalactix: I’m sure we would be artistic in other ways or at least passionately pursuing another career.

OCCG: If you could collaborate with any artist, who would it be and why?
Intergalactix: That’s a really hard question and I don’t think we really have one person in particular we would love to work with. Prince is obviously a massive influence for both of us and we have crossed paths a few times so perhaps it would be him.

OCCG: What’s next on your music career agenda?
Intergalactix: In October we go on a west coast tour and we are excited about that. It’s great to get out of town and play some interesting places and see how the music relates. We are still working hard on new material and feel super inspired right now. We look forward to another release early next year.
