1300
The Australian-Korean alt-rap phenomenon closed their breakout year with a string of accolades across the release of their Foreign Language mixtape, including the coveted Australian Music Prize, landing #23 in the NME Best Australian Albums of the Year list, FBi Radio SMAC Award Nominations for Album of the Year and Best Video for ‘Oldboy’, that won the triple j and Rage Australian Music Video of the Year J Award; internationally selected as HiphopLE’s Group of the Year and Hiphopplaya’s Upcoming Artists for 2022; a feature in Netflix’s viral Heartbreak High reboot and most significantly, selected by the Australian Council for the Arts’ Contemporary Music Touring Program and soundtrack to Samsung’s Galaxy Flip4 launch campaign, 1300 continue to pave the way for the next generation of the Asian diaspora. Their triple j Like A Version of Psy’s ‘Gangnam Style’ set the music festival circuit ablaze recently across Spilt Milk, Falls Festival, Lost Paradise and more – previously they marked their headline debut at the Sydney Opera House for VIVID. Consistently praised by Complex Australia, VICE, Pedestrian, Junkee, Red Bull Music, triple j, RAGE, MTV, The Music, Music Feeds, and national community radio support heralding their ability to continue to push boundaries musically and pop-culturally.
