"We're tipping From The Airport as a Korean indie group to watch in 2015. We're already hooked on [their] electric guitar and synth driven dance-pop...we can't get enough." -- The AU Review (Australia)
// BIOGRAPHY //
Korean electro rock duo From The Airport takes heavily synthesized sounds, throws in stellar guitar riffs, and creates intriguing, overpowering beats. Zee and Milo met at a friend’s studio in 2012, after years of working on music for popular Korean movies and K-pop. Then, one jam session was all it took to realize that their styles and personalities were the perfect match. The two singers’ love of synth and color led to them forming the band, and together released songs that are filled with pulsating synth beats and dramatic instrumentals.

From The Airport’s synth-imbued melodies is only half the story with these co-pilots. The duo completes their performance with surreal, dream-inducing graphics that match their beats, surrounding Zee and Milo with intermingled flashes of light and darkness in music video and onstage. The duo sings largely in English, using descriptive phrases to weave stories, but it’s the combined experience that makes From The Airport’s songs a mind-bending experiences.
They recently released their debut full-length album, 'You Could Imagine', which includes fantasy-inspired songs like “Sight” and “The Queen (The Beast). [source: MTV Iggy]
