Tangents formed in Sydney in 2010 and released their debut album "I" in 2013, a recording of their first ever meeting and live show.

Follow-up albums Stateless (2016) and New Bodies (2018), and linked singles and EPs, explored a style of post-produced live improvisation that marked the group's distinct blend of electronic, jazz, rock and new music-inspired styles.

Amidst other international recognition, New Bodies was nominated for the Australian Music Prize in 2018.

Their latest release, Timeslips & Chimeras, continues their studio recording journey after a detour into intensive live performance (idiosyncratically captured in a cramped radio studio on the Risk Reaps Reward EP) and a major digital art installation, Spiral, at the Powerhouse Museum, Sydney.

The record continues their relationship with New York label Temporary Residence through the challenges of music production in the Covid-19 era.

Tangents are Ollie Bown, Evan Dorrian, Peter Hollo and Adrian Lim-Klumpes. Sia Ahmad is a former member whose work continues through the Timeslips & Chimeras production period.
