Lowfish - frozen&broken
Gregory DeRocher is one of the world's leading electronica producers from Toronto. DeRocher records his own music using the pseudonym Lowfish, eventually the name is a reference to these dusty machines and his early lo-fi 'ish' sound.
He has released records (six albums and a stack of singles) on several labels, some charted in North America, and is noted for his punishing sets of live electronics.
His clinical production style is both very modern and built on the DNA of early new wave and IDM. Sometimes dark, often melodic and multi-layered, Lowfish tracks strive for meaning, timelessness and quality. The weapons of choice are what they have been from the start; semi-operational analog synths, temperamental drum machines and scratchy recording gear.
On October 14, Lowfish released his 2008 album titled frozen&broken on Noise Factory Records. Ten brand new tracks of edgy analog electronica reminiscent of Lowfish's famed Suction Records era IDM and an aberrant dance floor sound built from his most deviant sound palette to date.
