Biography

edit

The Lane 8 moniker originated back when Goldstein made garage rock with his sibling when they were kids.[6] He later started experimenting with hip-hop beats after being influenced by Pete Rock and DJ Premier.[2] At some point in 2012, "Lane 8 really found his groove with his sound fitting between pulsing electronica and a woozier kind of glitch-pop" putting him on the radar of Anjunadeep A&R executive Jody Wisternoff.[6] In 2013, he signed to Anjunadeep, where he released his debut album in the summer of 2015. He has previously described his sound as "dreamy back rub house."[7]

In 2016, Lane 8 founded the record label This Never Happened (TNH). Named after the show concept that began with his Little by Little tour, This Never Happened was created to build an independent presence in the deep house genre.[8] It has since grown into an outlet where he is able to release his best tracks as well as introduce new talent into the scene and give them a wider platform to build upon.[9] Artists signed to This Never Happened have been known to tour with Lane 8 as supporting acts and produce remixes of other TNH artists that are then released on the label. This Never Happened also volumetrically released Root to Branch, an EP-length compilation series featuring a few artists that provides listeners with a shorter inundation of new music. As of 2021, seven volumes of Root to Branch have been released.

Career

edit

Lane 8 launched the This Never Happened show concept, attached to his Little by Little tour, in 2016.[10] Attendees are prohibited from recording the shows with cell phones or cameras on the basis of encouraging attendees to be present.[10] In 2017, Lane 8 began hosting This Never Happened Summer Gatherings, daytime events in unique outdoor venues.[11]

After releasing music on SoundCloud in 2014, Lane 8 rose to wider prominence through the Anjunadeep label, and his 2015 debut album Rise.

Rise

edit
Main article: Rise (Lane 8 album)

On April 27, 2015, Lane 8 announced his plans to release his debut studio album, Rise on Anjunadeep. The album features vocal appearances from Solomon Grey, Patrick Baker, and Ghostly International's Matthew Dear, among others.

The lead single, "Ghost" featuring Patrick Baker, was released alongside the album announcement and Vice Media's Noisey premiered the song's music video, directed by filmmaker DEMS on May 12.[6] Following suit with the unveiling of the single, a "Ghost" remix EP was announced via an exclusive stream from Thump. The EP features "a diverse collection of artists like Audion (an alias of Matthew Dear), Bwana, Luvian, and even Lane 8 himself" with styles "ranging from techno to flowing progressive house, in four very captivating interpretations of the original track."[12] On May 14, Billboard premiered the Audion remix which "trades the original's beatless melodies and lonely lead synth line for a tribal groove that provides an edgy backdrop to Patrick Baker's longing lyrics."[13] The second single from the album, "Hot As You Want", was premiered by Spin on June 1. They described it as a "lovely 4/4 anthem" and "sublimely aching track."[14]

Little by Little

edit

On January 19, 2018, Lane 8 released his second studio album, Little by Little, to digital stores through This Never Happened.[15]

Brightest Lights

edit

On January 10, 2020, Lane 8 released his third studio album, Brightest Lights. The album features several appearances from the American synth-pop band POLIÇA, among other collaborators.[16]

Reviver

edit

On January 21, 2022, Lane 8 released his fourth studio album, Reviver. It features appearances by, Arctic Lake, Art School Girlfriend, Tailor, Kasablanca and Sultan + Shepard.[17]

Childish

edit

On September 27, 2024, Lane 8 released his fifth studio album, Childish. It features appearances by Arctic Lake, Art School Girlfriend, Tailor, Kasablanca, and Sultan + Sehpard. The album cover features art from his daughter, a departure from his previous studio album covers which heavily feature imagery of reflection, symmetry and natural elements.

Lane 8 shared in the announcement of the forthcoming album that he focused on channeling unrestrained imagination of his kids and his younger self. "[A]s parents, we’ve always tried to provide the materials and space for [children] to create, but to then step back and let them be themselves and focus without interfering, seeing the joy and the confidence that creating in their own way brings them has been one of the most eye-opening parts of parenthood for me."[18]
