Effortlessly combining a broad mix of hazy synths & classic drum breakbeats, Lapalace (Lily Mumby) is an ambient electronic project, shining as a lighthouse through a thick fog of nostalgia, fear, and the unknown.
Lily Mumby, working under the name Lapalace, is an English artist, DJ and multimedia artist. Known for her staple mix of combining hazy, droning synths & raucous drum breakbeats, Lapalace’s music shines as a lighthouse through a thick fog of nostalgia, fear, and the unknown. She began performing in her late teens as a DJ and live act, making a debut live performance in Liverpool in 2023.
Her debut release, Ephemera EP (2023) kickstarted her journey into music and performing live. Having been creating since as early as 2016, it wasn’t until her move to Manchester from her rural hometown on the east coast that she began to perform live and release her music under the Lapalace alias.
Primarily inspired by artists from the likes of Lorn, William Basinski, Autechre, and Arca, Lapalace’s work is hallmarked by a combination of ambient textures with wavering synth lines, and a munition of samples.

"As the seasons ebb and flow into the solace of autumn so Ephemera bruises the fall with the aid of smouldering drums, alongside tell-tale signs of closing nights. Ignited by the addition of melodically charged synth lines the number sits somewhere in-between a dark heat and the competing rays of low winter sun. Eventually rising into a heavy shuffle of drum and bass mayhem the original feels strangely epic." - Greg Fenton, Magazine Sixty
"Superb new EP from Lily Mumby, aka Lapalace. Same upbeat vibe as oqbqbo & Scandinavian Star but working Jungle rhythms and urban Ambient rather than Trance. Lead track is the highlight but the Thugwidow remix is a masterclass." - The Letter
"Lapalace, has furnished the good ship Insult To Injury with three ambitious, epic cuts of divergent dance destroyers that touch on Ambient, Jungle and everything in between! Lily Mumby, the creative brain box behind the project, has a no limits approach to her sound palette" - Ransom Note
