About this artist
Australia’s Peking Duk are an electronic production duo known for their dance-oriented, rock and pop-influenced sound and cheeky, party-ready attitude. Formed in 2010 in Canberra, Peking Duk feature Adam Hyde and Reuben Styles. Prior to working together, Hyde had played bass in various bands and Styles had been involved in hip-hop projects. They debuted in 2011 with the singles “Bingo Trippin” and “Welcome” featuring Stef K. However, it was their 2012 bootleg remix of Passion Pit’s “Take a Walk” that caught the public’s attention and helped elevate their profile. Several more well-received singles followed, including “High” featuring Nicole Millar and “Take Me Over” featuring SAFIA — both reached the Top Ten on the dance charts in Australia. “High” also won the duo an ARIA Award for Best Dance Release. In 2015, Peking Duk made their Coachella debut and delivered the Songs to Sweat To EP. Also that year, they released the single “Say My Name.” The following year, they collaborated with Swedish singer Elliphant on the hit track “Stranger,” which yielded two sets of remixes in 2017. Their follow-up single, “Wasted,” was released in early 2018. ~ Matt Collar
