Flowers Dope - LP (Snippets)

Hage is a DJ primarily with almost a decade under his belt, and a producer in the making, working on performing live in the future. Having been part of the Lebanese techno collective TeknoAnd, in which he played a crucial role in curation and building the image, made him a notable figure in the local music scene by rising through the ranks. Currently a resident DJ at the infamous club, The Ballroom Blitz, Hage has shared the stage with some of the biggest names in techno and beyond, such as Speedy J, Paula Temple, Headless Horseman, Maelstrom, Len Faki, Amelie Lens, UVB…  His creative output is a culmination of his musical journey, spanning the boundaries of electronic music, allowing him to work through any setting and time slot. Hage constantly pushes himself to be forward-thinking and innovative in hopes of leaving his imprint on the underground scene. His exploration in sound is limitless, with a goal of presenting his listeners with an unexpected story to tell each time, evolving constantly for their sake and mainly for his.

"Lowfish's music is deceptively simple, enormously catchy modern electro, eschewing currently fashionable digital trickery for good old analog skills" XLR8R

"Forget the watered-down schlock that passes for electro these days - this is pure, unadulterated synth music, and it rules" VICE

"Seriously, keine Verarsche! Hört mal genau hin, was sich da zwischen den Schaltkreisen entwickelt: ein Organismus, mehrere Zellen, Synthese dank 240 Volt!Lowfish, der bärtigste Bartträger von Toronto, forscht seit den späten Neunzigern nach Lebensformen im Schall. Gefunden hat er: zwei Dutzend EPs und acht Alben, die alle unter eigenen Label-Laborbedingungen entstanden sind. Sie enthalten Spuren von Delia Derbyshire, Mort Garson und Aphex Twin. Möglicherweise haben sich auch Tin Man und ein Dopplereffekt ins Petrischälchen verirrt. Wurscht, weil das ohnehin nur billiges Namedropping ist, um der organisch nach Luft hechelnden und ganz und gar lebendigen Gefühlsverwirrung einen Namen zu verpassen." GROOVE
