Quilotoa is the collaboration of Bristol-based producers LTO (@lto-oa) and Keplr, who met in 2013 trekking the Ecuadorian crater lake of the same name. Having remained friends, Quilotoa is their first collaboration.

Through their writing process the producers reminisce about the challenges they experienced whilst climbing the volcano Cotopaxi, the strange effects of altitude on the mind and the elation of the pair reaching the summit. Packed with heavily textured samples and soaring synths, their music mimics the vast Andean landscape; and the energy and euphoria of two friends on an adventure in the unknown.

LTO first made waves as part of mysterious electronic collective @OldApparatus, releasing on Mala's @deep-medi-musik label. As a solo producer, he has since attracted attention with his LPs on @InjazeroRecords and @Denovali Records as well as his collaboration with producer @edapollo as @Hirola.

Based in Bristol, LTO first made waves as part of mysterious electronic collective Old Apparatus. As a solo producer, LTO has since attracted attention with three albums.

LTO's ambition to create ever more ambiguous and far-reaching sonic environments, whilst retaining something of the familiar and physical, have led him to take inspiration from imagined landscapes of the folklore of his Welsh ancestry and of the planet Mars. Both images of enchanted forests battling enraged giants from the underworld and unimaginably hostile planetary events guide this work of great magnitude.

In 'Daear', LTO explores an expansive sound pallet of swelling synths and noise, ambiguous string instruments, thunderous percussion, unearthly voices and his signature sound the piano, mostly processed beyond recognition. The result is a mysterious and deeply textured journey that could be set in both the distant past and uncertain future, on this planet or beyond.
