Lowness is a one man project of seattle's scott sturgis, a
musician active since the mid-nineties with projects like
converter, dbs, notime and pain station. although lowness exists
since the end of 2005, sturgis took the time needed to make the
first lowness release 'undertow'. inspired by artists as
disparate as chrome, neu!, pink floyd, harmonia, black widow,
subarachnoid space, psychic ills, amon dⁿⁿl II and indian
jewelry, this album can be described as an ambient industrial
psychedelic hybrid. driving r-box beats, swirling synth dots,
mighty, pulsing subbasses and slicing guitar drones result in
dark, hypnotic rhythmic soundscapes with a nightmarish and in
places exotic feel. detailed post-rock instrumentation, subtle
electronic textures and often tribalistic grooves melt into one
-of-a-kind compositions created with strings and keys. lowness'
direction reflects an original take on familiar genre themes,
but pushes way beyond specific genre trappings by tossing aside
the cliches and commonality to focus on the raw emotion involved
in creating music. devastating and chilling at the same time,
'undertow' is an album recommended for intense listening in the
nighttime, just before dawn....
