Y.LOH – ‘VVITCH’

Y.LOH is a New York-based and Sonoran Desert-raised DJ and producer with a preference for minimal, downtempo house – and drawing inspiration and identity from natural environments and surroundings, Y.LOH attempts to connect with his homestead, the edgy and beautiful Sonoran Desert.

Y.LOH opened their 2021 account with the hypnotic ‘6 Train’ and is back with other mesmerising track ‘VVITCH’. Lifted from compilation album A Tribe Called Kotori, it slinks seductively along a syrupy groove as synths pulse and burst atop a compelling rhythmic force and slick beatwork. ‘VVITCH’ meanders along with hypnotising effect the groove grows and beats increase the tension, and synths and electronics flare to piercing through the increasingly murky air. Murky as it may be, as is the Y.LOH calling card, ‘VVITCH’ is illuminated by a deft touch for beats, groove and atmosphere.

Y.LOH – ‘6 Train’

Y.LOH is a New York-based and Sonoran Desert-raised DJ and producer with a preference for minimal, downtempo house.

Y.LOH draws inspiration and identity from natural environments and surroundings, and especially attempts to connects with his homestead, the edgy and beautiful Sonoran Desert. Created using field recordings in the NYC Subway system, latest single ‘6 Train’ is a case in point, capturing the essence of his commute on the busy “6 Train” line and encapsulating his approach superbly. ‘6 Train’ slinks and slaloms along a seductive groove as dubby tones and bass bubbles mingle with the rhythmic force of the trains journey and snatches of field recordings. As it snakes its way along we are hypnotised and transfixed while illuminated by shimmering synths and frazzled electronics. ‘6 Train’ is an utterly mesmerizing tune and a fine love letter to his current home.
