Self-described Gaysian Empress of Sydney, Dyan Tai (they/them) makes electronic hyperpop music fused with Beijing opera and Southeast Asian soundscapes.

Named as one of the outstanding acts to watch at BigSound 2023 (NME) and praised by Flume for their "sound design" (Triple J), Dyan makes ‘sophisticated palette pop” (Rolling Stone).

From humble beginnings in Malaysia to finding a niche on Sydney cabaret stages and now evolving into an electronic artist, the trilingual Chinese-Australian artist’s captivating live shows have been described as “a queer, euphoric dream that you don’t want to wake up from” (The Age).
