Loscil is the recording name of Canadian artist Scott Morgan who produces minimal ambient electronic music. The name Loscil is taken the name from the "looping oscillator" function (loscil) in Csound—a computer music programming language. Loscil has released a series of albums on Kranky Records beginning with Triplepoint in 2001. The 2002 album Submers plumbed the ocean depths for inspiration (every track takes its name from a submarine) and included a eulogy to the victims of the Kursk tragedy. More recent releases, First Narrows and Plume, incorporate live musicians for a more varied and dynamic sound. Loscil's fifth Kranky release is scheduled for release in early 2010 and includes a collaborative piece with Destroyer's Daniel Bejar.
