Brisbane producer UV Boi has released his debut EP, '[L-UV]'.
It features 'If She, If He' feat. Eastghost that has amassed over a quarter-million Spotify streams. While his latest offering 'Show You' feat. MTNS is the second cut from the EP, which was self-produced in his own bedroom and without the use of samples.
Having honed his live skills with a myriad of support slots for the likes of Yung Lean, Flosstradamus, Kaytranada and Tkay Maidza, UV Boi will be heading out on a national tour this April in support of his debut.

UV Boi is also a major fan of animation films. Here he lists his favourites.
1. Big Hero 6
MY FAVOURITE. You gotta watch.{youtube}z3biFxZIJOQ{/youtube}
2. Dumbo
I haven’t watched 'Dumbo' in years, but this film meant a lot to me being a foreign kid in a new country. Dumbo had a different trait to other elephants but always persevered. Pretty cool hey.
3. WALL-E
A lone, smart machine with sweet character is left behind on a dying earth, but a cute new machine comes to earth to find signs of regrowth. WALL-E falls in love with her. There’s a lot more to the story. There isn’t much dialog at the start, but you just FEEL the emotion.4. Wreck-It Ralph
I love 'Wreck-It Ralph'! He just doesn’t want to be perceived as the 'bad guy'. My favourite scene in the film is the 'I'm Bad, That's Good' moment. Altogether, the lines: “I'm bad and that's good….”. The sound score really makes me feel.{youtube}yV5a81odL8E{/youtube}
5. Nut Job
Most recent animation film I watched. Really funny and actually really sad too. It's about these animals living in a park in the centre of a city, trying to gather food before winter comes. Their tree and already low food supply burns down. A couple of squirrels (one being a nut job haha) save the park. The end.{youtube}8qrK78KER1Y{/youtube}
