About
LOWFISH_BIO
Overly serious about electronic music since 1988. One half of Canada's Suction Records label.
"Lowfish's music is deceptively simple, enormously catchy modern electro, eschewing currently fashionable digital trickery for good old analog skills" XLR8R
"Lowfish is a master of his art, pure emotion wrought out of electricity and machines, all done in a uniquely futuristic styling [he] is renowned for" BI-WIRE
"Referencing Detroit techno, Italo-disco, and the synthpop of Speak and Spell era Depeche Mode, Lowfish's full-spectrum electro nonetheless has a quality all its own. Lowfish's world is a pastoral Eden of bumblebee love songs and sentient machines chorusing in perfect harmony's" EARPLUG
"Forget the watered-down schlock that passes for electro these days-this is pure, unadulterated synth music, and it rules" VICE
Lowfish is perhaps one of Canada's most prominent electronica producers. His clinical production style is both very "new school" and built on the DNA of early new wave and IDM. Sometimes dark, often melodic and catchy - Lowfish tracks always strive for timelessness and quality while trying hard to steer clear of fashion and flavour of the month technology. The weapons of choice are what they have been from the start - semi-operational analog synthesizers, temperamental drum machines and scratchy recording gear. The name Lowfish was inpired by these dusty machines. The result being a production aesthetic that is lo-fi "ish", thus Lowfish.
