IsGwan explores a more melodic tone on new EP via Bad Parrot
Taking his artistry to new heights, Melbourne-based producer IsGwan is proving he is a force to be reckoned with on his latest EP Feel Free. Continuing his ascent as one of Australia’s most exciting electronic artists, IsGwan offers a personal and collaborative EP that highlights just how far he’s come. From warehouse sessions in 2021 to co-signs from Interplanetary Criminal and spins at Boiler Room and Warehouse Project, IsGwan’s evolution has been fast, focused, and full of intention.
This six-track release, out via London’s Bad Parrot, isn’t just about club bangers- though the rhythm still slaps. It’s a window into an artist refining his voice, taking risks, and widening his creative circle. Tracks like “On Your Mind,” featuring Amber Ferraro, show how IsGwan uses collaboration not as a feature, but as a co-authored emotional moment. “This song represents my shift towards more melodic music,” he says. “Moving away from club-focused tracks to something that can be enjoyed in any setting.”
That sentiment echoes throughout “Feel Free”. Whether it’s the ambient textures of “All That You Want” or the nostalgic UKG flavours of “On A Riddim,” each track feels like a different shade of IsGwan’s musical identity- shaped by his love for Four Tet, Ross From Friends, and Caribou, but never derivative.
The EP’s title track, “Feel Free,” feels like a mission statement: unafraid, melodic, and bound by no single genre. It’s clear IsGwan isn’t just chasing hype- he’s making space for vulnerability in electronic music, without losing touch with the dancefloor.With “Feel Free”, IsGwan demonstrates that growth doesn’t mean compromise- it means elevation.
