Description

‘Signals’ is the follow-up to LOTI’s excellent ’23 duo side with poet Ellen Renton for AD 93 - understandably now trading for a pretty penny 2nd hand - and depicts the artist delving ever deeper into a highly personalised soundsphere of warped textures and a hearty throb inspired by the wild natural world of his native Scotland.

The 11 tracks firm up as the 3rd release on his own label, Dusk Delay, with a sound defined by his steady-handed grasp of distortion, often dwelling right on the biting point, but with an artful rather than aggressive approach that can be heard as musical metaphor for persistently shifting weather patterns and rugged terrain, or more simply very pleasing on the ear.

Opener ‘Opalescent’ for example, feels like Jim Haynes nodding to Basic Channel, and it’s a pleasure to get soaked in the gauzy downpour of ‘ArXiv Mirage’, whilst ‘Re-Ionization’ emulates Carl Craig mired in Sendless Sutherland bogs. The clag clears up for one of the strongest club cuts in the heads-down pulse of ‘UAP’, before he sucks us under again to the mulched dub house stride of ‘G-Force LFO’, and reveals a subtly gorgeous deep techno vista on ‘united Wire’.
