Løt.te
Løt.te is Mehmet Irdel (born 1978), a Turkish artist, producer, dj and designer.
He’s currently based in Brooklyn, NY, where he runs AI—F, a record label releasing music and sound works that explore use of technology by and against oppressors such as authoritarian governments and greedy corporations.
Upon moving to the US from his native Turkey at age 18, Mehmet started composing electronic music initially influenced by Warp Records and A-Musik artists, and later by industrial and experimental acts like Coil, Muslimgauze, Z’ev, Einstürzende Neubauten and Aube.
In 2010, he founded the ambient/noise project Divine Slime, which blended electronics with traditional instruments from the Middle East and East Asia. He also co-founded the art and design collective and record label Rote Productions, through which he released experimental records and artworks until 2015.
Mehmet started producing and releasing music and performing under the Løt.te name in 2014. He’s released records on The Bunker New York, Robert & Leopold, New York Trax, Mysteries of the Deep, and AI—F. Mehmet has performed globally both live and as a dj, at venues such as Berghain (BER), Pickle Factory (LON), Contact (TYO), Nowadays (NYC), Good Room (NYC), and Bossa Nova Civic Club (NYC).

Their rooms
One tick a night, on the one axis this page has — Aug 2023, where the listings start, to Jan 2027, the last night anybody has announced. The shaded end has not happened yet.
- public recordsAug 2023 – Mar 20262 nights
Once each: Earthly Delights, Bar Laika and Bossa Nova Civic Club. Two of the 7 listings never named a room, and are not counted as one.
Who they play with
Counted from the bills themselves, over bills of twelve names or fewer. A pair's count includes a night that is announced and not yet played; where there is one, the row says when.

The nights, the rooms and the bills are the listings themselves. The biography, the labels and the photograph are Resident Advisor's. Nothing on this page was written for it.
