Melbourne electronic duo SAATSUMA have signed to Jim McKinnon's Teamtrick management roster, joining the likes of Mallrat, Allday, Tyne-James Organ and NYNE.

Teamtrick founder Jim McKinnon told TIO he'd been using Shazam to track down SAATSUMA songs long before the signing:

“I’d found myself Shazaming SAATSUMA songs while listening to triple j time and time again, so when the opportunity came to work with the band I jumped at it," he said. "Memphis and Cesar are super talented and inspiring artists, and they’ve got an exciting future ahead of them.”

SAATSUMA, the collaboration between Memphis LK and César Rodrigues, just last year inked a deal with Dom Miller at New World Artists. Now, off the back of their management and booking deals - plus the release of debut album Overflow in September 2017 - the pair are set to premiere new single 'Big Burner' on triple j's Home & Hosed tomorrow night (Oct. 16).
