Put on your glasses and get to a big screen, Australia's most innovative DJ Ego today releases Between Dreams, the full length audio visual mixtape that's been exhibited in the whirl of packed rooms across his national tour. The full release sees Ego melding hundreds of audio and visual samples with pop culture references in his signature psychedelic style.

Ego says of the piece, 'Between Dreams is a trip through the ether - a flight through fantasies, fables, fiction, imaginings, visions, wishes, washed-out memories, would-be's and could-be's, soundtracked by future beat, bass and house. I wanted to stick to more of a rigid theme in this mix and tour, rope off some boundaries and try and tell more of a story through music and visuals."
Ego's live sets have taken him from nightclubs to art galleries to main stage slots at Falls Festival, Splendour in the Grass and Field Day; from around Australia to across the world. In high demand off stage as well, Ego has produced film clips for the likes of Beni and LDRU, productions for Red Bull, Fuzzy and Modular, and official video remixes for The Presets and Lana Del Rey and Clubfeet. In 2013 he teamed with Touch Sensitive to create the world's first instagram-sourced, user-generated song and music video. In 2012 he teamed with Nice to create the viral hit Hottest 100 mashup, compiling all songs from the year's JJJ Hottest 100 poll into a 6 minute song and video.
