LPX (R.I.P., 2005 - 2008)

Bio

LPX was Kildare man Leigh O’Gorman, although now based in South London. He specialised in brooding punk infused experimental electronica, as heard on four highly recommended releases; Fashion/Not Fashion, Seventeen, Experiments in Dub and HiFi and Easy Music for Difficult Ears.

On LPX releases he provided the (occasional) vocals, the programming, the production AND plays all the instruments. Leigh says his music sounds like “a bunch of nerds in a small room dropping acid”.

LPX ceased to exist in December 2008, as he has relinquished that responsibility to work on other music related projects.

In his spare time, he writes for the music orientated blog, Easy Music for Difficult Ears - easymusicfordifficultears.blogspot.com

The LPX release, "Seventeen" EP, was released in January 2008 to approximately 18 people - here are some nice things that have been said about it.



".a collection of five inventive and agile instrumental tracks spanning 25 minutes, O'Gorman scores a coup with the sinister 'Jake's Lament'. Seventeen showcases an artist who is making music that's an unmitigated pleasure to partake in."

Lauren Murphy, Entertainment.ie (February 2008)



".if you're a fan of melodic electronica then you'll love "Seventeen". The five tracks on the EP are prime slices of lush electronica with an edge of dub - atmospheric, at times dark and menacing, at times soaring and energising."

Aoife Barry, Kildare Nationalist (January 2008)



".as track seams into track, I realise that this music was made to walk, breathe, live to: filled with purpose and intent, it will take you where you need to go."

Naomi McArdle, Off Her Rocker (January 2008)



".the fact that (he) sounds like Four-Tet jamming with a Glockenspiel wielding Patrick Moore should be recommendation enough."

Music Like Dirt (February 2008)



".the album [EP] features four [five] short little pieces of lush electronica. Top notch stuff yet again from LPX."

RoadRecs.com (Road Records - January 2008)



".it's more than that, it's a feeling. Like the title track of Kid A with fully grown legs, jazz put through tapped out electronica. LPX makes fine music from these things."

The Torture Garden (September 2007)
