Loscil

Canadian ambient musician

Loscil is the creative alias of Canadian composer and multimedia artist Scott Morgan, whose immersive ambient and ambient dub compositions have made a significant mark on contemporary electronic music. Over the past two decades, Morgan’s distinctive sound—subtle, atmospheric, and deeply evocative—has garnered a loyal following among discerning listeners and critics alike. With his releases frequently finding a home on the esteemed Kranky label, Loscil’s catalogue is celebrated for its nuanced exploration of sound and texture, resonating in both classical and electroacoustic spheres.

Recent years have seen Loscil remain impressively prolific, with albums such as "Chroma" and "Umbel" (both released in 2024), "Lake Fire" in 2025, and "ALTA" and "Colours of Air" in 2023, demonstrating a continued evolution of his ambient vision. The forthcoming "Ash" EP, due in November 2025, is highly anticipated among ambient aficionados. In addition to his recorded output, Loscil has built a reputation for entrancing live performances, artfully pairing immersive audio with evocative visual elements. In September 2026, Loscil is set to headline at London’s Institute of Contemporary Arts, joined by AM sin as a support act, offering a rare opportunity for UK audiences to experience his unique soundscapes in a live setting.
