about

Combining intricate production and live strings, LUSTRE is the new electronic music project from Adam Gibbons, the artist and producer best known for his works under the Lack of Afro moniker, and more recently being one half of The Damn Straights. Today he has unveiled Loma, the lead single from a self-titled LP released via Bastion Music Group on 4th June. A departure from the funk & soul he has become renowned for, on LUSTRE Adam takes his influence from electronic and classical genres in equal measures, recalling the likes Bonobo and Four Tet.

"LUSTRE is a project that I've wanted to do for a long time. Though people know me for the funk-based material I make as Lack of Afro, away from the studio I found myself listening to music that was a lot more rooted in electronics - more club-orientated, but still retaining that organic element. It's actually probably the music that I listen to the most. I've followed a lot of artists in that genre for a long time and as a producer, making some tracks in that world seemed like a natural continuation of the process.”

Whereas with his other projects he would have to spend a lot more time heading into studios to capture the right sound, with LUSTRE Adam was able to do a lot of it at home, at times just working on his iPad, an experience he found liberating.

“I'd never used the iPad as a writing tool before, so that was new territory for me. It gave me a freedom to just chuck ideas down and get a vibe going really quickly. I was able to pull in different sounds and audition them really quickly - consequently there was less conscious 'thinking' involved, and more intuition.”

With an album out this summer and batch of songs ready to go for album two, LUSTRE is a new and exciting addition to Adam’s ever-growing musical CV.
