Artist to watch: Mister Lies + music video for 'False Astronomy'

Mister Lies is the multimedia project of artist Nick Zanca. While living in Chicago, he was best known for his work as an electronic producer with the 2012 release of the downtempo, sample-driven Hidden Neighbors EP as well as his atmospheric, tribal-inspired debut full-length Mowgli released the following year. 

After several months of touring, Zanca returned to his studio space in Vermont and began work on his upcoming release. Now based between New York City and the Green Mountains, he is teaming up with Brooklyn-based DIY powerhouse label Orchid Tapes to release that sophomore effort, Shadow. The album’s sound is a significant departure from his previous work; replacing trip-hop inspired percussion and distinct vocal samples with organic instrumentation and vocal performaces from Zanca himself. Shadow is out October 28th and features contributions from New York singer Harrison Lipton and Mister Lies' Portland-based labelmate, Arrange.
