Remnants is a compelling collection of rare and previously unreleased recordings by Son Lux spanning 2008 to 2017. These recordings include pieces commissioned for dance, drastic reimaginings of existing Son Lux songs, and three outtakes from the first Son Lux release, At War With Walls & Mazes. More than a decade after inception, Son Lux has shifted from Lott’s singular vision into a three-piece ensemble featuring virtuoso musicians Ian Chang on drums, and Rafiq Bhatia on guitar, and Son Lux’s continually evolving recordings still point toward an exciting musical future that contemporary pop music has yet to realize.
