Helen Grimley: Classical to Electronic

from Living A Messy Life Hosted by Carmel Creative

Helen and I met many moons ago, back when I was a classical singer and she was a classical composer. We both ended up moving into electronic music, and now run into each other at underground raves rather than classical concerts! Classically trained, Helen Grimley aka Grimbo, began her musical education from a young age as a clarinettist and saxophonist. She went on to study composition at UNSW and classical singing alongside. Helen completed her studies with First Class Honours and received a University Medal in Music Composition, amongst other awards. She then studied at the Australian Film and Television Radio School (AFTRS) before working as a professional composer on several feature films, short films, dance & theatre and television. She has served as music assistant and written Additional Music for L.A based Australian composer Michael Yezerski (The Black Balloon, House of Hancock, A Place to Call Home, Transformers). Helen started producing electronic music in 2025, focusing on jungle and footwork. Her track “Start Bleed” was the inaugural release on Sydney label “Chronically Ill Audio” and she is currently DJing at several events around Sydney including Afterlife and Bump In.
