Keegan “Keegus” Gusikowski is a Sydney-based music producer, multi-instrumentalist, and mix engineer whose distinctive sonic fingerprint fuses warped synths, soulful textures, and glitchy percussion into lush, emotionally-charged soundscapes. With over a decade in the game, Keegus has carved out a niche as the secret weapon behind some of the most forward-thinking releases in Australia’s underground and indie scenes.

Starting out as a session drummer turned bedroom producer in Marrickville, Keegus earned his stripes producing bootleg remixes that quietly blew up on SoundCloud—his unofficial flip of Frank Ocean’s "Seigfried" racked up over 200k plays before being DMCA’d into legend status.

In 2018, Keegus was handpicked for Red Bull Music Academy’s Sydney Lab, where he connected with genre-benders like Jonti and Milan Ring, sparking collaborations that blurred the lines between jazz, soul, and electronic production. He’s also produced ad spots for Vans, Heaps Normal, and GQ Australia, bringing his cinematic, off-kilter vibe into the commercial world without selling out.

Currently, he’s deep in production on his debut concept album “Only Ghosts Can Swim,” a genre-smashing blend of modular ambient, spoken word, and broken beat.
