This song was turning heads, including Fuxwithit Blog (Toronto) and What So Not.

Among thousands of comments on What So Not's post about who should support him on his tour, he found Bismodi, which led to getting multiple shout outs from What So Not on instagram.

The 2023 slot went to someone else, but What So Not had future plans for Bismodi.

Flash forward to 2024 and Bismodi got the call to support What So Not on the Dance Dance Revival Tour, opening for the big man himself and doing a B4B with him and others on the lineup.

This opportunity meant Bismodi was finally able to play his full discography for the first time and played to his largest crowd yet. Again, turning heads in the Perth scene and abroad.

As for the rest of 2024, Bismodi has multiple Flips he plans to release and a couple more originals. With a VIP of his song Waste My Time set to come out Friday (20/09/24).
