   About luga
After years of playing in bands he found that other people only held him back and in 2006 he made a complete break. Now he works alone with only a laptop for company weaving together wide ranging influences spanning shoegaze, breaks, electronica, folk and much more into an etherial ambient sound that is all his own.

Producer: luga
Co-Producer: the forest fire
DJ & Promoter: our front room

New Album
"Sending Triangles"
Released on bristol label Distant Noise can be found at online record stores:

(2) pulse records
(3) tonvendor records

Reviews:
I'm thrilled to be able to bring you the first release on Tarl Ashman's (aka Innerise) Distant Noise label. This debut release comes from Luga and it's an absolutely spot on blend of melodic music that manages to sound electronica, as well as textural and even shoegazey. There are some seriously uplifting moments of soaring soundscape mixed with delicately crunchy beats and a robust sense of melody that carries thewhole thing through in style. One to enjoy whilst letting the sounds wash over you. I like this a lot and it's a spankingly good start for the label. Top. ......>>smallfish records<<

"Bound By Indifference"
Released on belgium label vu-us can be found at online record stores:

(1) smallfish Records
(2) n5MD Records
(3) u-cover mailorder

or order from the label Send a mail to order@vu-us.com
9,5 euro + shipping costs

Reviews:
'Bound by indifference' is an album created by Lewis Broad Ashman from the UK. Slowly building his way into the IDM music scene Luga's debut brings tunes that have elements from all kinds of origin, layered synths, fresh sounding (glitch) beats, gentle sweeps and chords all pass the revue.....>>u-cover<<

Another excellent release from -Scaldis-'s own VU-US label. Taking a chilled out and nicely electronic feeling with a melodic and organic texture. Most of the rhythms are on the downbeat tip (I hate to mention Boards of Canada, but it seems somehow appropriate!) and the layered up sounds use various influences, from guitars right through to synths. It's a musical album and sits very happily next to the work of labels like Boltfish and U-cover, albeit with a more accessible (kind of) style. Very pleasing indeed and one to check......>>smallfish records<<

i've been giving 'little finger' its first listen here :)
really nice production, i like the slightly detuned synth towards the end. It would really go well in the spore environment, don't know if you played the game yet, but i mean it in the best possible way! the game's great, and so it this track :)

Cool, just to warn you it probably won't be our best gig, due to the venues ultra sensitive noise limiter. It's notorious for cutting out even the sound of acoustic acts.
Oh well..

Wow seriously great music on here! Thanks for the add. Hope to catch you in town soon.

It was good. I knew everybody would be cold and tired so I proper went for it to get people going. Jumped off stage and had a dance in the crowd during Father Said. It went off.
