Sleepmakeswaves is an Australian post-rock band hailing from Sydney, known for creating atmospheric instrumental landscapes that combine a mix of melodic, progressive rock with ambient and electronic influences. Formed in 2006, the quartet quickly established themselves within the post-rock genre with dynamic and emotive live performances, as well as their adeptness at blending crushing guitar riffs with serene passages that often build to epic crescendos.

With a discography marked by a continuous evolution of sound, sleepmakeswaves has garnered a loyal following and critical acclaim both in Australia and internationally. Albums like "...and so we destroyed everything" and "Love of Cartography" have solidified their position as a force within the instrumental rock scene. Their most recent work includes the 2020 release "these are not your dreams," a collection of EPs that sees the band experimenting with shorter song formats and a more eclectic range of sonic textures. This release showcases their ability to innovate and push the boundaries of their genre without losing the emotion and intensity that their music is known for. With tracks like "Out of Hours," "Pyramids," and "No Safe Place," sleepmakeswaves continues to invite listeners on a journey through vast and vivid auditory landscapes.
