OrangeTone is Montréal-based producer and sound designer Étienne Dubé. Inspired by an amalgam of club, experimental, and ambient, Dubé imagines sounds like objects. Often sturdy and metallic and just as frequently bendable and plasticine, OrangeTone’s compositions are both architectural and malleable; sounds and textures contort, interweave, and collide with one another delightfully.

On The Wing
Helly Manson started making music under the moniker foil in 2020. Her process evolved through chopping up snatches of sound – the twangy verse of a Moominvalley theme song or the thwack of a Jeopardy loop. From obsessive play with samplers, micro beats, and midi-instruments, her practice flipped on its head over and over again. All in search of that feeling of hearing a sound that has always been present – a bird chirping, the lilt of a nursery rhyme – in a completely new way.

The result is a free kind of electronic music; whimsical, meticulous sounds placed along a plane of wacky compositions, each song evolving unpredictably.

Screentime in the Deep - Blue toed
