From his early releases as Lusine onward, Jeff McIlwain’s electronic explorations make up one of the
more diverse discographies of the past decade and a half.
Effortlessly blurring the lines between techno, electro-pop and experimental composition, the Texas-
raised/Seattle-based producer’s arrangements are meticulously constructed, but also filled with emotion
and soul. Following 2017 full-length Sensorimotor, which explored the body’s instinct versus the
brain’s intent, the new introverted 4-tracker, Retrace, finds McIlwain just as kinetically-curious.
Balancing focused programming with washy, less concrete sonics, Retrace plays with the unexpected
by drawing from slight variations on the same idea.
As Lusine, McIlwain has performed throughout the US and abroad, including sets at London's
esteemed Fabric nightclub, Tokyo's Unit, Berlin's Watergate, and Melbourne's Electric Owl. Recent
tour dates include appearances with electronic luminaries like The Field, Tipper and Blockhead, as well
as playing at various events with a live drummer (Trent Moorman).
In addition to his Lusine productions, McIlwain has been involved with various film projects that
include The Sitter (Jonah Hill, 2011) and two David Gordon Green movies, Snow Angels (featuring
Kate Beckinsale and Sam Rockwell, 2007) and Joe (Nicolas Cage, Tye Sheridan, 2013) with music
writing partner David Wingo. McIlwain most recently collaborated with Wingo on the film score for
Meredith Danluck's State Like Sleep (2018).
