Animé par son amour de longue date pour le hip-hop des années 90 autant que par sa passion pour les sons plus hardcore, la musique de Lone est imprégnée de nostalgie. Avec “Levitate” (2016) le DJ londonien nous plongeait dans un mix audacieux entre beats percutants et fièvre psychédélique, intense.

“Always Inside Your Head”, son album très attendu après cinq années, est sorti en octobre 2021 ! Il présente une nouvelle approche, Lone ayant travaillé avec la chanteuse Morgane Diet. Véritables bouffées d’air frais, ces nouveaux morceaux se veulent profondément éthérés.

Whether it’s his long-standing love of 90s hip hop, passing penchant for the bright lights and sounds of hardcore or career defining old school house releases, Lone’s music is steeped in nostalgia. Studio or club born, he teases a dance floor ready sound from the in-between places of your consciousness, making you feel warm and fuzzy without quite knowing why.

Prolific from an early age with six album releases to his name already, it was Nottingham born and now London based Matt Cutler’s energetic 2010 LP, ‘Emerald Fantasy Tracks’ which truly put him on the artistic map. The accolades amassed from there on, Lone’s last two long-players – the sweet as candy ‘Galaxy Garden’ and dusty hip-house hitter ‘Reality Testing’ – catching the ear of the critics, whilst his high profile remixes, including Radiohead, Disclosure, Friendly Fires, Nathan Fake, TEED, Underworld, Steffi and Midland spread his sound to the masses.

For his freshest release, the intense LP ‘Levitate’, Lone has dragged a collection of feverish breakbeats out of hibernation to create a short-and-sweet 34-minute soundscape that was born in the hallucinatory depths of an actual fever, the breakneck psychedelic journey described by Cutler himself as ‘an intense blast’.
