本名Lockett Pundt,Deerhunter的吉他手,2009年3月推出首張個人專輯「The Floodlight Collective」,音樂受My Bloody Valentine、Stereolab、Roxy Music等影響。專輯所有創(chuàng)作是透過Lockett在臥室以電腦4軌錄制的成品,專輯名稱源自Lockett高中時期與Bradford Cox (Atlas Sound)及共同朋友一起組過的玩票性質(zhì)樂團團名。專輯內(nèi)所有樂器由Lockett伴奏,除一曲”Different Mirrors”由Bradford Cox執(zhí)鼓棒客串。
 
本性害羞的Lockett在Deerhunter一直是個默默無言、漫不經(jīng)心地彈奏樂器,只需專注盯著腳下的聲效踏板的角色。實則Deerhunter渡過不安的早期樂團生涯,在Lockett 2005年加入后,似乎也替樂團某部份曲風定了調(diào)。從Deerhunter第二張專輯開始參與,Lockett為樂團貢獻4首令人印象深刻的獨力創(chuàng)作,分別是:”Like New” (Fluorescent Grey EP ‘07)、”Strange Light” (Cryptograms ‘07) 和”Agoraphobia”(主唱)、”Neither of Us, Uncertainly”、”Dot Gain”,末三首出自’08年「Microcastle / Weird Era Cont. 」雙碟版。就”Strange Light”和”Dot Gain”可以聽出非常Lotus Plaza式的風格,不難聯(lián)想他的solo作何以呈現(xiàn)幻視般的延續(xù)漸層重疊音色,極度渙散猶如封面照過度曝光的花白光點,一如樂團風格充滿懷舊傷感,也以他超脫空間的迷幻吉他聲線讓樂團擺脫首張專輯狂亂脫序的節(jié)拍,讓Deerhunter的punk/garage主干更觸及純?nèi)恢X體驗的聲音旋弛氛圍實驗。
