Bronze Whale

Bronze Whale is the indie-electronic project of Austin-based duo Aaron Jaques and Benny Alley III, blending a decade of production experience with a love for melody-driven songwriting. Originally emerging through remix culture and their Hype Machine blog Waxhole, the two evolved into a fully self-produced act, crafting a signature sound that fuses electronic, indie, and hip-hop influences.

As producers, songwriters, and vocalists, Bronze Whale thrives in the space between crisp electronic beats, dreamy atmospheres, and emotive storytelling. Their ability to blend organic instrumentation with electronic elements has led to a catalog of immersive releases that feel both familiar and boundary-pushing.

The duo’s music has resonated far beyond streaming, landing placements with the NFL, NBA, NBA 2K24, Bose, Hulu, NBC, and The North Face, among others. As independent artists, they’ve built their own creative ecosystem—handling everything from mixing, mastering, and visuals to running their independent label, Magic Magic. Their DIY ethos ensures that every release is not only sonically rich but deeply personal.

At its core, Bronze Whale is about honesty, connection, and emotion—music made for those in search of something that feels both intimate and expansive. Whether through their ethereal productions, distinct vocals, or cinematic live sets, Aaron and Benny continue to create with an authenticity that keeps fans coming back.
