About Lord of the Isles

Lord of the Isles is the alias of Edinburgh producer Neil McDonald. A producer hugely inspired by his obsession with beauty and the virtue of the wilderness, Lord of the Isles has spent the last decade shaping music that somehow manages to provide a juxtaposing electronic soundtrack to nature; earthy, airy sounds tinged with analogue elements of acid and house. As well as the nominal lineage, McDonald cites an early fascination with Scottish history as his reason for choosing the name, the result of memorable childhood holidays "getting dragged around the Highlands by my parents." As a DJ, MacDonald has been building momentum by touring his LOTI moniker throughout Europe's club circuit, with stops at Berghain/Panorama Bar, Concrete and Trouw. As a producer, LOTI betrays MacDonald's revere for the vast Highlands of his native Scotland - mimicking natural beauty with a deft balancing of elements. To house his diverse bank of influences LOTI has released across a range of labels including Permanent Vacation, Mule Musiq, Ene, Phonica, Firecracker, Shevchenko and ESP Institute.
