Tor. Vancouver producer, spent over a decade quietly honing his craft before his debut album, Drum Therapy, came out on 11 December 2012. Downtempo built on dusty samples, organic instrumentation and driving percussion. He drew on 1960s Italian film scores, Turkish psych records, Celtic folk hymns, Eastern instruments and gospel, and played a lot of the parts himself. Drum Therapy was the debut release on Loci Records, the label Emancipator launched in 2012, and 'Glass & Stone' is the opening track. Since then he's toured with Emancipator and Bluetech, played Shambhala, Bass Coast and Burning Man, remixed ODESZA, and followed up with Blue Book (Loci, 2016).
