LT: The Ransom Note Mix

5 Minute Read

Music

One of the UK’s most in form producers delivers over an hour of deep, emotive electronics

LT is perhaps the most underrated producer out there right now. Releases on the likes of Rhythm Section and X-Kalay have cemented his place.

His music is deep and emotive, drawing upon influences from Techno, Hardgroove and IDM. It always carries a deeply pensive and euphoric undercurrent which plays out delicately on the dancefloor and makes for as much a listen as it does for a dance.

LT retains a low profile, lets the music very much do the talking and in this day and age, thats admirable.

This mix demonstrates a deep rooted understanding of electronic music, weaving between textures and tones to create a beautiful journey which encapsulates the listener in a fast paced world of dreamy soundscapes.

Dubbed out and hyped up.
