Few in the field of explorative ambient music have remained as questing and unclassifiable as Canadian composer Tim Hecker. Across his 15-year career he has moved through shades of reflective electronic noise, experiential sound design, and modern composition with a deft and distinguished touch. Even so, the past few years have seen a minor renaissance in his discography –time seems to be fortifying his palette, rather than fossilising it.

Support comes from Edinburgh’s Super Inuit. Super Inuit are Brian Pokora and Fern Morris whose dreamy synths, mangled samples and jazz informed vocals come together as Dark Ambient Glo-Fi / Atmospheric Pop. Mixtapes both solo and in collaboration with poet Jessica Schouela preceded ‘Tessellate’ the first true track as a duo with a record expected by the end of the year. Performing in an Icelandic record shop in the afternoon at 1pm and sweaty club at 1am their live show has proven to be as dexterous as compelling.
