Sensorimotor

From early work that majored in gentle electronic glitch, through to the abstract pop of 2013’s The Waiting Room, Jeff McIlwain’s music has an elegance. Sensorimotor overflows with bubbling melodies and muscular bass as it alights on slo-mo two-step (Witness), grandiose, fluttery ambient (Tropopause) and, on Flyway, instrumental ’80s synth pop. Big, warm music that doesn’t shout loud, yet makes itself heard. SW
