Jae Moon is an instrumental hip-hop artist from Sydney, Australia. He is known by his contemporaries for creating a mellow, ambient sound strongly reminiscent of 90s underground hip-hop.

From 2009 to 2011, Jae Moon enjoyed moderate success as one half of the Aussie hip-hop duo, Stories For Nothing, where he provided the role of the rhythm section for Sydney MC Kelton Muir. Together, they performed all across Sydney, playing at such renowned venues as the Oxford Arts Factory (as the before act for Chance Waters), Factory Theatre (as the before act for Horrorshow) and Lansdowne Hotel (as the before act for Johnny Utah).

Since 2009, Moon has been a prolific producer for various underground artists. He runs the Facebook group ‘FREE beats by Jae Moon’ which distributes custom-made beats, free of charge.

The debut album, It’s All Good, Baby, was released independently in 2010. The follow-up EP, Aimi, was released later that same year. Moon released his third EP, 'Masika: Part 1' in November 2012 and his fourth EP 'Masika: Part 2' on Valentine's Day, 2013.

Jae Moon will be performing the EPs in local Sydney venues from March 2013.
