Milan Ring is an accomplished musician, songwriter, producer, engineer and musical director who has recently taken up residency in Berlin to expand her genre-defying sound into new territories. Exposed to the experimental and unknown amongst Berlin's offerings of spatial sound, her newfound obsession with sonic meditations and deep listening experiences have led her to create an immersive sound bath that lingers in the moments between grief and release – like the first drops of rain, the tension before transformation.

With a decade-long music trajectory, and an expansive catalogue, her sonic innovation harmonises her technical expertise and creative autonomy. For her Sydney Festival performance The Sound of Rain on Dust, Australian R&B innovator Milan Ring transforms The Neilson into an intimate lie-down sonic experience, blending voice, guitar, electronics and Australian field recordings to explore the liminal space between grief and release. Known for her 2024 album Mangoes, laden in raw emotion and candid storytelling, her new piece is a carefully orchestrated departure further into her tender transportive sets.
