Melbourne's hip-hop/rap/pop/rock/dance duo Direct Influence were in town recently as part of the Music Matters Live at Clarke Quay.

on stage with a macbook pro, some crazy buttons and a microphone, i have to say they were making some very sweet music and some of the songs they played were pretty commercial friendly and im sure if they do get a major record deal, they would be invading the airwaves soon enough heh

i have to say that as much as their music is pretty good and all, it didn't leave a big impression like Manafest, who played just before them at The Arena.

i guess it could be because of the fact that the music they played were pretty broad and that they don't really have their own 'sound' yet but looking at what they did, im sure they will eventually figure what they enjoy playing best and here's wishing them the best of luck! :DDD

here's a video of their single, Far East. :))
take a listen, if you liked experimental sounds like early Daft Punk, you'd probably like them too. :))
