Lilstiffy Returns With New Album 'Ecma'

Premiered last night via Twitch livestream, Whanganui electronic artist Lilstiffy is back with a new album so keenly anticipated it's been credited with crashing Facebook earlier this morning. Launched via Pattern Recognition and dedicated to Reuben Winter (Totems, Milk), Ecma's name refers to European Computer Manufacturer's Association with techie-inspired track titles being a "lil fedora tip" to web developers. Sporting seven tracks recorded over the past year "during the great pandemic," Ecma takes listeners on bullet train journey through a sample-spliced matrix of club friendly sounds, likely drawing on the artist's recent experiences living amongst the futuristic high rises of Tokyo — featuring special guest Tender Moonlight handling bass duties on 'Async' and 'Get'. I'm looking forward to dancing to these killer tunes when Lilstiffy takes over Newtown Festival's Gordon Pl Stage this Sunday from 4.15pm, listen up here...
