British four piece Seefeel emerged at a time when rock music had begun to stagnate, with grunge’s intense energy starting to fade. Fusing textured, heavily treated guitar tones with electronic sequencers & drum machines, the group forged an inventive new path that casts a quiet influence on artists to this day. 

Australian DJ Moopie explores the band’s lush, inventive discography with this two hour In Focus.
