About - Qualtagh

Qualtagh is an electronic musician and ​producer based in Knoxville, TN.

Pronounced KWAL-tuck, a qualtagh is a sign of good luck. A ​word that comes from the Isle of Man, it means the first person ​you say hello to when leaving home on any given day or the ​first visitor to walk through your door in a new year.


Sonically, Qualtagh's music builds on IDM and chillwave ​electronica themes using immersive synths and live drum ​recordings; instrumental compositions layered with saturated ​melodic textures, ambient elements, and rhythmic collages.

Qualtagh’s musical style fits in the multi-generational company of genre-bending electronic artists like William Orbit, ​Bonobo, The Octopus Project, Quantic, Black Moth Super Rainbow, Yppah, Teen Daze, Boards of Canada, and Tycho.


“I’m raising my hand in the crowd of music nerds affected by songs visually and especially by music as a conduit for ​emotional tones in films and TV; I love the way instrumental music can conjure up cinematic imagery on its own. ​Collections of sound originate with a composer, but they lay circuits ultimately completed by the listener, switching ​on storylines in the mind's eye.”
