History
Cosmo's Midnight were formed by the twin brothers, Cosmo and Patrick Liney, as a music duo in Sydney in 2012 after graduating from Waverley College.[2] They provide different styles within electronic music often with pop and R&B elements. Their tracks have been included in several compilation albums such as the 2015 Ministry of Sound FUT.UR.ISM 3.0[3] and Chillout Sessions XVIII.[4] Tracks have also been presented on radio stations such as Triple J, FBi Radio, BBC Radio 1, and KEXP. They were signed to Astral People[5] management after winning a Future Classic remix contest for Flume's "Sleepless" in 2012.[2][6]
Cosmo's Midnight released their debut single, "Phantasm" featuring Nicole Millar, followed by their debut extended play, Surge, on indie label, Yes Please, in mid-2013.[2] They remixed other artists including Panama, Indian Summer, Anna Lunoe and AlunaGeorge before signing to Sony Music Australia in 2014.[7] Cosmo's Midnight released singles "Snare" featuring Wild Eyed Boy and "Walk with Me" featuring Kučka as well as their second EP, Moments, in 2015.
They undertook their first tour of North America early in 2017,[2] and followed in August with their next single, "Mind Off" featuring Kudu Blue. The duo released their debut album, What Comes Next, in June 2018, which peaked at No. 36 on the ARIA Albums Chart.[2][8]
In the lead up to the release of their sophomore album, the duo released a string of singles with features by Ruel, Age.Sex.Location, and Matthew Young. Yesteryear was released in October 2020.
On 20 August 2021, Cosmo's Midnight released their first single of 2021, saying "'Titanic' kind of feels like a thematic progression from Yesteryear. It's reflecting on past regrets but instead of Yesteryear where it's kind of got this hint of optimism to it, 'Titanic' is kind of pessimistic. It's like the moment just before everything spirals downwards."[9]
