themes in neo-classical music, electronica and post-rock." The review further stated, "they ultimately craft gorgeous, sparkling experimental noises that blur the line between post-rock, minimalist electronica and Turkish folk." 2015: Lost Voices Lost Voices was released on Constellation Records in 2015. It is nominated Instrumental Album of the Year at the upcoming Juno Awards of 2016. The band composed the record at Le Chateau Monthelon in Montreal. France. Lost Voices is the result of multiple recording sessions led by Vid Cousins (Kid Koala, Amon Tobin, Colin Stetson) and was mixed/produced by Jace Lasek (The Besnard Lakes) at his Breakglass Studio in Montréal. Expanding from Dalmak's core quartet, Esmerine also welcomes bassist Jeremi Roy (who began touring with the group in 2013) as an official member. Lost Voices is also notable for the appearance of GY!BE/Silver Mt. Zion violinist Sophie Trudeau as a featured guest. Style, live performances Decoder Magazine has described Esmerine as "new-classical, punk-drone-post rock." As a "chamber rock" ensemble, Esmerine's music consists mainly of percussion, cello, and marimba, lacking the guitars prominent in the members' other side projects. Esmerine's style shares many characteristics with minimalist classical music and chamber music. When the band tours live they are known to use lightbox projections by artist and puppeteer Clea Minaker, also known for working with Feist. In December 2013, the band toured Europe and the UK, with several Turkish musicians joining them on stage.
