Manchester producer Lone a.k.a. Matt Cutler is coming to the United States in support of last month’s excellent Reality Testing LP, with one date in Toronto to make it a “North American” tour. Oldest DJ trick in the book, Cutler. The Canadians will take what they can get though, I guess — one basketball team, one baseball team, and one show from Lone. Everything in moderation.
Featuring an audio-visual component from Glasgow artist Konx-Om-Pax a.k.a. Tom Scholefield, the quick American jaunt will see Lone’s prismatic house and hip-hop in a smattering of large cities, including a token Austin date and two New York shows in one day. You can almost hear the Canadians in Montreal and Vancouver muttering, “Wait, that’s not fair” at a moderate volume. I kid because I love, my Northern friends, and I know you can take it. But until Lone announces a string of Saskatchewan dates, you guys should enjoy the blissed-out beauty of Reality Testing and then caravan your asses to Toronto for a Blue Jays/Lone dream weekend.
