Defender is an Austin, TX group conceptualized by Producer/Composer/Sound Designer Dustin Spillman. His music's unconventionally cinematic song structure and embedded textures evokes a profound feeling of introspectiveness and imagination. Defender's approach to innovative electronic music compels the psyche to switch circuits and engage in a newfound mode of thought. Dustin's unique production beautifully combines both the joy and pain of 21st century passion into a unconventional, new form of electro-soul.
