Electronic music group The Lugubrious are native to the Swiss capital Bern, famous for its alternative districts and its mythical club Dachstock. The outfit plays touching, moving ambient sounds with their sophisticated compositions resonating with heart, creating a sense of melancholy reminiscent of the beauty of life. The weight of their sound mainly stems from heavy bass lines, whereas the acoustic experiments and surprising sound effects are vibrant with light and freshness.
Pumping beats with great love for textures, crunchy samples, distorted saxophone hooks and a whole range of different synthesiser sounds send you on a discovery trip into the depths of your dreams.
Their mixture of ambient, electronica, idm and downtempo has already brought them a nomination in the category “electronic” at the M4Music Festival in Zurich 2016. Furthermore they‘ve been nominated for the Swiss Live Talents Award in 2017. With their well-known and powerful live performances the band has already supported international acts like Romare, Christian Löffler and Stimming. They’re also renowned for remixes of some popular tracks by celebrated Swiss acts like Yokko, Dachs, Len Sander and Pablo Nouvelle.
After their last vinyl release via the Berlin label Finest Ego (sub-label of Project Moncircle) The Lugubrious are back with a powerful and warm track. The new single, “Isolated”, reminds us of the time when the world was in lockdown and we were dreaming of a sweet club night with lots of pumping bass music, sweat and smoke. It is the first of more releases to follow in the coming months.
