Shlohmo, born Henry Laufer, has announced his signing to influential independent label True Panther. To celebrate, Shlohmo released a brand new track, “Emerge From Smoke,”. Available for purchase on iTunes now, “Emerge From Smoke” will also be released on 7” vinyl with an exclusive track on the b-side via True Panther and Laufer’s own burgeoning artist collective, WeDidIt, with pre-orders here.
Shlohmo’s sound has evolved in ways that are difficult to describe. His unique approach to production seems as steeped in sludge metal as it is in drum & bass, as much IDM as it is R&B. It is somewhere deep within this sonic collage that he has carved out a distinct and celebrated voice in the electronic music space. His production on BANKS’ 2014 single “Brain,” and his sought-after remixes and crossover style, as witnessed in this year’s collaborative release with Jeremih, are further evidence of his immense talent and wide scope of influence.
