For someone who went from growing up in a secluded Norwegian forest to producing for some of the biggest hip-hop and pop megastars on the planet, Peder Losnegård has had quite the journey. It was through a series of remixes that Lido catapulted into the sets of the most high-profile DJs around the globe, capturing the ears of numerous notable tastemakers. Reworking acts like Disclosure and Bill Withers, the producer set the internet ablaze with talk of his four-note piano tag and speculation as to who was underneath the moniker. His playful, restless musicality saw him adopt an array of aliases -- but he'll keep those under wraps for now.
Debuting with 2014's I Love You EP (BEC 5161926), followed by the Superspeed EP (2015), and remixes of Banks, Alt-J, and MØ, Lido's anti-formulaic style emerged. His tracks bounce from one idea to another voraciously, but always with that clear Lido stamp. You don't just get a drum and a bassline on a track of his; you're more likely to get an entire string or brass section that elevates his sound to cinematic heights. Comes on black-and-blue splattered LPs; Comes in a gatefold sleeve with printed inner-sleeves.
