Sad City is Northern Irish producer Gary Caruth's Glasgow-based electronic music project. Repetition is key here. Subtly transforming percussive loops and field recordings work together to build dense new sound environments within which Caruth's melodic pieces formulate and intertwine with often disfigured spoken extracts.

His debut LP 'Shapes In Formation' released in July via Emotional Response and Meda Fury has been met with widespread acclaim, garnering support from the likes of Andrew Weatherhall and Gilles Peterson.

"This is deep, subtly deconstructed house music, with its feet in a classic tradition and its head lost in reverie." - Resident Advisor
