During this time, they released several viral remixes of artists such as Peking Duk, Tom Piper, and Major Lazer as well as originals. Since then, What So Not has toured the world playing various festivals including Coachella, Pukkelpop, Ultra, and Lollapalooza with hits from “Gemini” ft. George Maple, “Jaguar,” “High You Are,” and “Tell Me” with our Wicked headliner, RL Grime. The artist formerly known as Emoh Instead has gone on to take over the music project and continues to top the charts with productions appearing on the Australian Singles Chart, Triple J Hottest 100, and iTunes Electronic chart.
