Ian Brogan and Pablo Morris aren’t your average producers. Under the name Ancient Mermaids, the duo has gained a decent amount of traction over the past year. We first got a taste for their music through a submission for The Untz Challenge, which was followed by an appearance this summer in the Electric Forest. 

The new Ancient Mermaids single, “Moondust,” uses subtle electronic elements that together form a three-minute sonic adventure.

A slick synth lead starts off the track and builds through subsequent sections. There are also some smooth chops, between both male and female vocals that really help to drive the track forward. Before long the song wraps up and will leave you wondering, as it did us—how long until another Ancient Mermaids release?

As these two continue to craft their sound, you can guarantee The Untz will be listening.
