Australian band daste. has been anything but quiet in 2024. They released three new singles—"Around", "Colours" and "Atlas" and are gearing up for their sophomore album, set to drop in February 2025. In the midst of their tour, the trio graced us with a new single called "Starwriter" which blends a psychedelic indie pop energy with a touch of mellow autotune-sque scent.
They share, "Starwriter is a track we came up with during a writing trip to Wooli, a small beach town in Northern New South Wales. One line, “write your name in the stars like calligraphy,” sparked the idea, inspiring us to explore themes of a legacy written in the stars. Creating this song was a lot of fun, and it didn't require much tweaking after the initial sessions—we believe it's strong at its core."
