The trio strengthened their chemistry and honed their collective intuition while creating, releasing, and touring five recordings, including LPs Bones (2015) and Brighter Wounds (2018). 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 band strives to question deeply held assumptions about how music is made and re-construct it from a molecular level. вЂњ What loudly righteous prayers from this cowardвЂ™s lung,вЂќ Lott sings in the final moments, in what feels like an admission of the many things that are said to be done in love that hurt others.ДЇrom the start, Son Lux has operated as something akin to a sonic test kitchen. But what reads as a self-serving plea turns on its head as the song becomes a confession.

Instruments remain mostly out of focus, but in brief moments, flurries of strings and woodwinds emerge and recede from the fog.В вЂњ I need a different kind of love,вЂќ Lott sings at the start. вЂњA Different Kind of LoveвЂќ, the atmospheric single lifted from вЂTomorrows IIIвЂ™, is a song that encompasses thick punches of percussions and heaves through a foggy atmosphere of sound. The album has been written by The AV ClubВ asВ вЂњ One of the yearвЂ™s must-hear releasesвЂќ and вЂњ Beams and shards of sounds in many colors, all combining to make something very mesmeric, as alwaysвЂќ described by BBC. Born of an active, intentional approach to shaping sound, the music reminds us of the necessity of questioning assumptions, and of sitting with the tension. The вЂTomorrowsвЂ™В material lives and breathes in a truly blood-flowing way, giving the material a distinct living and breathing identity.ДЄrriving at a time of considerable uncertainty in the world, Son LuxвЂ™s multi-album вЂTomorrowsвЂ™В is ambitious in scope and intent. SINGAPORE - With the much-anticipated release of вЂTomorrows IIIвЂ™, New York-based soundscape artists Son LuxВ has put together a gripping live performance for NPRвЂ™s Tiny DeskВ series, out now.
