    Euan Dalgarno

    answering some questions. We have already observed his ambient / electronic / drone work here.

    [1. IDEA]

    ■ The A. O.: The track from “uoying” that we prefer is “horrow (feat. Canaan Balsam)”. Can you tell us how it came to light?

    ► Euan Dalgarno: Canaan Balsam and I first connected while we were both putting out music on Modern Obscure Music. Since we’re both based in Edinburgh, it was only natural that we started exchanging ideas, tracks, stems—and the occasional beer. When this track called for a bit more grit, I gave Canaan a shout and he sent over a few pad layers, some of which had been run through a RAT distortion pedal, giving the track just the edge it was missing.

    ► In our humble opionion, that’s simply one of the tracks of the year. The gentle interplay between piano and xylophone establishes an atmosphere of innocence and calm, before slowly dissolving into darker textures. As layers of synths and distant echoes emerge, the instruments seem to fade, pulled gradually into a vortex of abandonment. The descent is mesmerizing — graceful yet unsettling — capturing the beauty of letting go.
