We will be having our launch gig on the 3rd of September at The Slaughtered Lamb in Clerkenwell with our former labelmate and melodic electronica guru Infinite Scale playing in support.
Andy Dobson's cinematic electronica project has been going for 8 years and has seen releases through cult UK labels like Toytronic, Seed and Cactus Island. Now in a new home at leading UK chillout label Just Music, and with second album Save Your Light for Darker Days safely in the can, Digitonal's collision of string drenched beauty, melodic electronics and expansive beats continues to push electronica into new territory. Uplifting, emotive, and beautiful.
