Who is Golden Features? It's a question many have asked since the debut of his super enjoyable four track debut EP in February. Finally we have an answer as the man behind the mask revealed himself! His name is Tom Stell and he is a 23-year-old producer from Australia. In an interview with Thump, Stell revealed the motivation to keep his identity secret. ‘Well, before I started producing as Golden Features I was doing more EDM style stuff – more ‘big room' house – but to be honest with you, I didn’t love it anymore. I wasn’t enjoying it. I felt like I was forcing something.' It appears that creating a separate anonymous persona allowed Stell to completely redefine his sound and allow the music to do the talking. ‘The Golden Features character came about because of that. I didn’t want my face plastered over things just because I prefer to have a character that I speak through.' If you have never heard Golden Features before check him out below.
