Lowfish is the musical alias of Gregory de Rocher, born in Toronto in 1972. After overcoming early hearing problems, he discovered a passion for music, particularly influenced by his mother's disco 8-track of Giorgio Moroder's "I Feel Love." His fascination with sound deepened after witnessing a modular synthesizer demonstration at the Ontario Science Centre, which inspired the punchy analog sounds that would define his work. Drawing from a background rich in industrial music, such as Skinny Puppy and Nitzer Ebb, as well as early melodic electronica from artists like Aphex Twin and Warp Records, Lowfish has become a notable figure in the electro and electronica scenes. He began releasing music in the late 1990s, with a series of 12-inch records on his own Suction Records label. His debut full-length album, "Fear Not The Snow and Other Lo-Fiing Objects," was released in 1999, followed by the acclaimed "Eliminator" in 2001, which garnered attention from discerning fans and renowned DJs alike. In 2002, Lowfish's output surged with the release of the electro 12-inch "The Accidental Causer" on Ersatz Audio, the "electro-class" EP "Maintain The Tension" on Suction Records, and a contribution to Ghostly International's "Disco Nouveau" compilation. He has also performed live, both solo and alongside Suction Records partner Solvent, sharing stages with notable acts like T
