Moth Traps
(experimental electronic, indie electronic)
Quick pitch: ‘Hooligan’ is a love song to the wild delinquents who have always claimed the streets as their own: the invisible outsiders who exist beyond the law, skittering in and out of the perception of most city dwellers. Their map of the urban landscape is unique: the streets and shadows read like a dialect all of their own.

Scott Stevenson
(downtempo, experimental electronic)
Quick pitch: A ghostly onslaught of melodic timbres reverberating within a maelstrom of ethereal vocalic layers; interspaced with off-beat percussive stabs that echo the minor key anguish which has become a signature of Stevenson’s catalogue to date. Haunting…
