Peppermoth

Peppermoth is the ambient project of Eccodek creator and Canadian producer Andrew McPherson, showcasing his love of classic ambient music, exemplified by artists like Eno, Daniel Lanois, Harold Budd, Cocteau Twins, David Sylvian and early 20th century impressionists, Débussy and Satie.
On 2023's release, ‘Mistake of the ear (The Peppermoth Variations)’, Andrew has crafted a musical handshake, joining Eccodek’s global dub with Peppermoth’s spacious, ambient cinematics. Tracks from all 5 Eccodek studio albums are represented in this re-envisioning.
Peppermoth was created out of Andrew's deep love of ambient, classical and dub music and is guided by his unique approach to atmospherics. With the support of US imprint Six Degrees Records, Peppermoth has released an impressive 4 albums in 5 years.
On ‘Mistake...’, Peppermoth’s patient and hypnotic treatments unfold beneath the voices of Eccodek’s guest singers, featuring production that combines the warm glow of acoustic instrumentation with the shape-shifting sparkle of synths and treatments. The project’s subtitle ‘The Peppermoth Variations’ takes a page from Andrew’s classical training, borrowing the popular concept of ‘theme and variations’ used by composers who's musical ideas would develop in a series of variations. The ‘less is more’ approach allows us to fully inhabit the transcendent beauty of these voices from Mali, Turkey, Persia, India and Rwanda. More info here: https://www.andrewmcpherson.ca/eccodek-1
