Lord Of The Isles 'In Waves' (ESP Institute)

We almost missed this one. So to ensure ‘In Waves’ made waves in the pages of Mixmag, we went back to it – and boy will you be glad you did, too. Lord Of The Isles, aka producer and graphic designer Neil McDonald, has been writing and producing for almost a decade, the enigmatic releases finding homes on key electronic imprints like Permanent Vacation, Phonica and Mule Music. His debut album, released via LA label ESP Institute, is fresh and spectacular. McDonald says an early fascination with Scottish history inspired his moniker, as well as being dragged around the Highlands by his parents as a young child. Those trips clearly made an impact on him, because ‘In Waves’ is laced with beautiful chord progressions and colours as bright as tartan. He seems to be as in touch with nature as he is with percussion and quirky melodies, as demonstrated by the sound of waves washing over pianos on the title track. Its 15 tracks are the epitome of otherworldly electronic sophistication and yes, for the most part they’re as Balearic as a classic DJ Harvey disco re-edit. Certain tracks stick out: the glitchy Balearic bounce of ‘Liobasta’ is an early highlight, as is the smooth cinematic touch of ‘Obar Lìobhaite’. The Âme/Dixon-ish bleep masterclass ‘Weh-In’ doesn’t put a foot wrong over eight scorched minutes, either, while the subtly breathtaking ‘Yanomami’ isn’t far behind. You can catch Lord Of The Isles at Primavera next summer; don’t miss the boat. Ralph Moore

2020 could be – no: must be the year of breakthrough for Joris Feiertag. The graduated musician and producer from Utrecht releases music regularly under the moniker of «Feiertag» since 2015. This year though his output will be increased massively. He released the EP «Severance» in January on Sonar Kollektiv and set the bar high for pop music that works in clubs just as well as at home. Already in September a second EP by the name of «Heal» will come out. But Joris Feiertag doesn’t want to keep us waiting until then just like that. 

At the end of March he released «Seasons» (featuring the vocals of Oli Hannaford). And with «Solve» we have now another song that will sweeten our spring. The quite cool and laid-back track is actually as invigorating as only the month of May can be. «Solve» has to be located somewhere between instrumental hiphop, chillwave and downtempo house. In plain English: uncategorizably damn good. Or put into other words: a track to whistle along to.
