S.EX's signature sound fuses rock 'n' roll chaos with electronics & ambient effects. It is spectacle, where noise & experimentation—hard-tuned vocals, in-your-face samples, fuzzed-out bass, & dreamy pedal steel—amplify, rather than obscure, real songs & intense emotion.

S.EX was formed in 2023 by Niagara locals , MattUU, Jess Chau, & Aidan R. The trio played a pivotal role in kickstarting a local music resurgence via their label Routine Exploits. They completed their line up with the addition of Finn and Doug in 2024 and have been touring Southern Ontario as part of the NIAGARA INVASION touring group.
