Son Lux

From the start, Son Lux has operated as something akin to a sonic test kitchen. What began as a solo project for founder Ryan Lott expanded in 2014, thanks to a kinship with Ian Chang and Rafiq Bhatia too strong to ignore. The result is a carefully cultivated musical language rooted in curiosity and balancing opposites that largely eschews genre and structural conventions. And yet, the band remains audibly indebted to iconoclastic artists in soul, hip-hop, and experimental improvisation who themselves carved new paths forward. Distilling these varied influences, Son Lux searches for equilibrium of raw emotional intimacy and meticulous electronic constructions. Son Lux has most recently scored the new Daniels film for A24, “Everything Everywhere All at Once”, and in celebration of the 10-year anniversary of their landmark album ‘Lanterns’, has released a collaborative reimagining of the album, ‘Alternate Forms’.
