Lowercase Noises is the solo project of Andy Othling, an ambient musician and composer whose work is characterized by a blend of atmospheric textures, intricate soundscapes, and emotive guitar work. Othling, who is based in Albuquerque, New Mexico, started Lowercase Noises in 2008 and has since then crafted a prolific and nuanced discography that explores the interplay between melody and drone, serenity and dissonance, weaving introspective sound worlds that invite listeners on contemplative journeys.

The artist's recent body of work includes titles like "An Encounter with Broken Time," which captures the essence of temporal fragility through expansive sonic layers, and "Immemorial Slumber," a piece that hints at timelessness and the subconscious depths. Each release, whether it's the tender inflections of "I've Been Lying Open" or the haunting introspection of "I'm Afraid Anymore," builds on Lowercase Noises' reputation for creating profoundly expressive and immersive audio experiences. With "Terra Incognita: Live from the Ojito Wilderness," Othling showcases his live performance prowess, translating the mystical allure of the natural world into a mesmerizing auditory experience. Fans of ambient music praise Lowercase Noises for its ability to evoke raw emotion and thought through instrumental storytelling, making Othling an influential figure in the contemporary ambient music landscape.
