Ixona is the second LP from Chicago composer Conor Mackey under his Lynyn alias. Crafted primarily with hardware, Lynyn's instrumental compositions draw on dub-techno, drum and bass, and acid, immersing the listener in an environment that's both vastly spacious and startlingly intimate. As intricate breakbeats skitter through granular textures and pointillist swarms, this place that is no place assembles itself and glows.
Track "Pad C U" is exclusive to Digital (streaming and download) and Compact Disc versions only.
"bubbles over with funky, futuristic sounds"
- BrooklynVegan
"Mackey’s knowledge of music theory and modular sound design is ahead of the fray, often culminating in fast-moving, intensely futuristic symphonies that will send tired minds into a state of fine-tuned hyperdrive"
- DJ Mag
"he builds a landscape that seems to stretch to infinity"
- Chicago Reader
"each texture combines into a cohesive, head-spinning whole, establishing a sense of gratifying balance to the pandemonium"
- Pitchfork
