Dam Mantle is the moniker of Tom Marshallsay, a reflective, Glasgow-incumbent artist and electronic producer whose debut album Brothers Fowl is the culmination of a long and varied musical path.
Releases have ranged from the other-worldly chamber orchestration found in his Grey EP, the menacing, electronic-infused hip hop of the Purple Arrow EP, or the joyfully eclectic bedlam of his We EP release. Brothers Fowl sees Dam Mantle turning another corner, building the record with a similar palette of sounds and rhythms but bringing a noir-ish ambience to the proceedings. It is his most fully-realised statement and a fine culmination to the last three years of activity.
