Vancouver residents Ashlee Luk and Lida P have built a distinct sound with complex arrangements of polyrhythmic drums, floating melancholic melodies and spooky vocal loops, a heavier and more sinister sound than some of their Vancouver peers. Their journey began with an album for local label Genero, which highlights female producers from the Canadian city. Their music has appeared on Jungle Gym and First Second, and they’ve now released an intense acid trip for Lobster Theremin.
