Miami Horror is an electro-pop act from Melbourne, originally the brainchild of 22-year-old Benjamin Plant and now a newly formed live band.
Influenced by dance-pop artists of the 1970s and 1980s, Plant first made a name for himself using the moniker Miami Horror with a series of remixes that include Stardust's Music Sounds Better with You and Tegan and Sara's Walking with a Ghost. As Miami Horror, Plant made his commercial debut in 2008 with a five-track EP, Bravado
Yet it was while Plant was punching out his EP that Miami Horror took off in a completely new and different direction. Characteristically wanting to flex his creative muscle and avoid the limitations of being stereotyped as simply a dance or electro act, he rewired Miami Horror and recruited Josh Moriarty, Aaron Shanahan and Daniel Whitechurch to form a new live band persona.
Miami Horror released their album Illumination in August 2010 together with single I Look to You featuring Kimbra.
If you're into crisp dance beats and moody, atmospheric synth tracks, you'll find a lot to like about this Australian electro act.
