Huna sent us this heavy Jungle flip of a classic by Jeremih & Shlohmo and we had to share it with the world! In Huna' words "This was one of them tunes that just came together so organically"Ībsolute certified heater, so you already know what to do! Hit that download and secure yourself a free banger. Shlohmo has created a record as contemplative as it is intense - and one that manages to find moments of cautious optimism amid the chaos, like a flower blooming from the rubble.So excited to welcome to the ec2a family. It feels like his idiosyncratic sound has always been lurking in the background as a score to hotbox sessions, comedowns, late night bike rides and early morning train journeys. It’s a melancholy, beautiful sound and one that proves easily malleable to whatever mood Shlohmo finds himself in - G-funk lead-lines, processed vocals and metal guitars are all incorporated seamlessly at different points. The End Shlohmo Zipper There is a familiarity in Henry Laufer’s musical aesthetic that sets a certain level of comfort regardless of the subject matter. Many of the tracks build up from thick bass tones, often adding plumes of synthesised melody and a generous dose of reverb. While the rhythms switch themselves up a fair bit here Shlohmo’s melodic and harmonic world remains uniform. This allows him to take his music to exciting new places - at points on The End we find garage shuffles and Rephlex-style Braindance freakouts, and plenty of the beat programming draws from trap and hard rock. The End Shlohmo Zip Zip Files Are Zip files are now a common method of compressing files and folders for sharing.As software becomes more complex, file sizes increase, however there is often a limit to the file size an e-mail provider will allow. Where his beats once slip-slid all over the place, now Shlohmo’s drums have a surgical snap to them. Shlohmo’s style has streamlined in the decade since he emerged from LA’s Brainfeeder/Low End Theory scrum. It’s no surprise to find that this album is a heavy listen. The difference is that this time the stakes are even higher - The End that he’s confronting is the end of the world. As with 2015 sophomore LP Dark Red, The End finds the Los Angeles legend twisting and turning through darkside mutations of hip-hop and bass music. Shlohmo drops The End, his third full-length record and the latest release of his to emerge via the Friends Of Friends imprint.
