Loscil: after previous sell out shows with us, we’re delighted to welcome composer and sound artist Scott Morgan back to London. Over more than a decade the deceptive depth of his gentle ambient electronics has been drawing in listeners on labels like Kranky. His more recent work has absorbed organic instrumentation into his burbling soundscapes.

"...an impressive catalogue of pensive, minimal records that turn computerized sounds into something strangely soothing-- the kind of music you want to listen to flat on your back, eyes fixed at the ceiling..." PITCHFORK

"...a set of songs left teetering on the brink of actually existing at all, a sort of ghostly paean to the beauty found on the cusp of complete silence." DROWNED IN SOUND

Schneider Kacirek: the due of Stefan Schneider (founder member of ex-Kreidler and To Rococo Rot) and solo percussionist Sven Kacirek have studied traditional Kenyan music and transplant its complex rhythms onto spidery electronica.
