Antenna Drift

“No perfection. Just songs, noise and whatever happens on the day."

‘Antenna Drift’ is the moniker of Matt Highamm, from the North West of England, UK. Matt makes original lo-fi, indie music with a love of 1960s pop melodies, 1990s underground guitar music and the imperfect charm of home recording. 

When creating songs, first takes are often kept, mistakes are left in, and tracks are mixed quickly rather than endlessly polished. Melody is the key. Earworms are essential.

The aim is to capture something immediate: the feeling of a song being played for the first time, before the edges have been smoothed away.
