Loscil and Svarte Greiner at Tiefgrund / Friday, 27.11.2015

Two of Digital in Berlin’s favourite acts in the field of ambient music team up this November for an exceptional double bill at Tiefgrund in Friedrichshain. Canadian Loscil will play his first Berlin show since his performance at the D/B Musiksalon 2 years ago, while Berlin resident Svarte Greiner will also deliver another of his fine solo concerts. All of which makes for a first class double bill – we can think of no finer way to spend your Friday night.

Loscil is the project of Vancouver based composer Scott Morgan. Morgan’s background in Vancouver’s independent music scene as a drummer and guitarist and his academic composition studies at Simon Fraser University culminated in the creation of Loscil in the late 1990’s. With Loscil, Morgan explores the marriage of electronic production and acoustic instrumentation to create “…stark landscapes that are evocative, earthly, anything but abstract, and so much more than merely ‘ambient’.” (The Quietus, UK).
