Biography
Lusine (formerly L'Usine or Lusine ICL) is the stage name of Jeff McIlwain, an ambient/IDM musician. A native Texan, McIlwain now resides in Seattle. In 1998, he attended California Institute of the Arts to study 20th century electronic music and sound design for music and film. Soon after, he met Shad Scott and put out a self-titled release with Isophlux. According to Andy Kellman of AllMusic, "While there might be other producers who are more accomplished at making idyllic downtempo, or placid IDM, or abstract hip-hop, or haunting ambient techno, or blipping/skipping minimal house, few—if any—are capable of covering all of that ground with such sharp consistency on one disc." Jeff McIlwain has also composed music for films, co-scoring David Gordon Green’s films Snow Angels, The Sitter and Joe, Kevin Bray’s 2008 film Linewatch, and Meredith Danluck's 2018 film State Like Sleep.
