In April 2013, Taylor signed to 4AD. His first release through 4AD, Bloodflows, reached #1 on the Amazing Radio chart. In September, follow up track Lessons was released with an Olivier Groulx-directed, Dazed & Confused-premiered music video. In April 2014, debut album Tremors was released with lead single Artifice. The album charted in several European countries and received favorable reviews.
After temporarily trading Vienna for Northern California, SOHN spent several months alone writing and recording the ten tracks which form his sophomore LP 'Rennen' (January 2017). The album was preceded by 'Signal' and 'Conrad'.
Along with his own work, Taylor has also worked with other artists - writing and producing Banks's Alibi and Waiting Game, remixing Lana Del Rey's Ride, and producing songs on Rita Ora's new album.

SOHN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
No, I won't play your games no more
If you won't believe my motives all
If you want to leave this lonely hole
Well I won't play your game no more
When the colors fade Im locked out of this
When the colors fade, I'll go
And when the votes are made I might make a mark
When the votes are made I'll know
We were formed from a
Small set of emotions
We're over ground
Nothing here but a
We'll set it in motion
To let it stop
I won't play your games no more
No, I won't play your games no more
If you won't believe my motives all
If you want to leave this lonely hole
Well I won't play your game no more
I won't
With the covers on I'll breathe in the days
With the covers I'll give
We were formed from a
Small set of emotions
With a undertow
Live in half-lies
Going through the motions
We won't let this grow
I won't play your games no more
No, I won't play your games no more
If you won't believe my motives all
If you want to leave this lonely hole
We were formed from a
Small set of emotions
The undertow
Live in half-lies
Going through the motions
They won't let us go
In SOHN's song Veto, the lyrics revolve around standing up for oneself and refusing to be manipulated by others. The phrase "I won't play your games no more" is repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the singer's determination to no longer be a participant in someone else's agenda. The singer declares that if someone does not believe in their motives, they are not interested in engaging with them any longer, and if the person wants to leave, they will not hold them back.
The song touches on the idea of being stuck in a cycle and wanting to break free, as can be seen in the lines "we were formed from a small set of emotions" and "live in half-lies going through the motions." The singer seems to be searching for a way out of this cycle or "lonely hole" and is willing to stand up for themselves to achieve that.
Overall, the song Veto is about personal growth, recognizing one's worth, and refusing to be a pawn in someone else's game. It's a powerful anthem of self-empowerment and independence.
Line by Line Meaning
I won't play your games no more
I refuse to participate in your manipulations any longer
No, I won't play your games no more
My decision to opt-out of this game is final
If you won't believe my motives all
Your lack of trust in me is unwarranted
If you want to leave this lonely hole
If you desire to move on, I will not stand in your way
Well I won't play your game no more
I am done being a player in your schemes
When the colors fade Im locked out of this
The end of this phase will bring my exclusion from it
When the colors fade, I'll go
My departure from this situation is imminent
And when the votes are made I might make a mark
I may choose to have an impact when the outcome is decided
When the votes are made I'll know
I will have an understanding of where I stand after the decision is made
We were formed from a Small set of emotions
Our relationship was founded on a limited range of feelings
We're over ground
Our connection is not deeply rooted or significant
Nothing here but a We'll set it in motion
There is nothing substantial to build off of, but we will try to move things forward
To let it stop
We will not allow things to cease or stagnate
With the covers on I'll breathe in the days
I will seek solace under the covers to deal with my struggles
With the covers I'll give
I will surrender to my feelings and let myself be vulnerable
We were formed from a Small set of emotions
Once again, our connection was formed from a limited range of sentiments
With a undertow
Like an undercurrent, there is something lurking beneath the surface of our dynamic
Live in half-lies Going through the motions
We coexist in a space built on incomplete truths and mere routine
We won't let this grow
We will not allow the situation to develop or flourish
They won't let us go
External forces or circumstances may make it difficult for us to move on

Verse 1]
I won't play your games no more
No, I won't play your games no more
If you won't believe my motives or
If you want to leave this lonely home
Well I won't play your games no more
When the colours fade I'll opt out of this
When the colours fade, I'll go
And when the votes are made I'll not make a mark
When the votes are made I'll know
[Chorus]
We were formed from a
Small set of emotions
The overground
Nothing here but a
Wheel setting in motion
To let us down
[Verse 2]
But I won't play your games no more
No, I won't play your games no more
If you won't believe my motives or
If you want to leave this lonely home
Well I won't play your games no more
I won't
