Now available on our music player! You can listen to the single "Walking on a Dream" from electronic duo Empire of the Sun (comprised of Luke Steele and Nick Littlemore).

Empire Of The Sun's music takes you to another dimension. Both are gifted, by spreading love, peace & healing in their music. They form a energising & fantastic duo.
Just by hearing the melodies & lyrics, it grabs me and instantly takes me away. I really enjoy their music. I wish them much love and all the best in further future. I really hope to hear more from them. Like...when they will be touring here in Europe! Much Love -XxX- Daboxie

I was intrigued by Empire of the Sun the first time I saw their dreamy video Walking on a dream. I found out that they don't just make good music, Luke & Nick have a beautiful strive: Trying to bring people together, to spread love, respect and open mindedness channeled trough their music. I'm an art freak, so this is to me the ultimate artistic experience in music. The surreal sounds of Luke's voice, the use of the guitar and keyboard, the surreal sound effects, combined with beautiful visuals created out of dreams....I've never experienced music this intense ever before. Empire of the Sun in it's total has become an important part of my life, which I as an Empyrean, will embrace for the rest of my life.
Thanks for this opportunity!
Empyrean greetings, Daphne

Empire Of The Sun's impact upon my life is hard to describe. Their music has brought sun and joy back to my life with the best blend of lyrics, melodies and vocals I could imagine. I can't wait to get up every morning and get my first fix of their inspirational music.
Thanks Luke and Nick for inspiring me daily to continue the Empyrean way!!
