An LA native, Laufer grew up listening to "stuff like DJ Shadow, Amon Tobin, M83 stuff with some sort of cinematic vision." He started making beats when he was 14, but "didn't really do it with any sort of purpose until [he] was like 17 or 18. That was also around the time he and his friends, already fans of Flying Lotus, discovered Low End Theory. Shlohmo has rocketed onto our radar screen in recent months with his lo-fi, psychedelic mix of abstract hip-hop, bouncy synth-funk, breezy trip-hop, and what sounds like lost Mo' Wax gems from an alternate future.
His tracks swarm from dirty textures, strange sounds and obscured samples. It's not hip-hop what you hear, but the echoes are clearly there.
He also part-runs the WEDIDIT Collective.
His Shlo-fi EP is available for free download at Error Broadcast label website.
In 2011, Laufer released a full length LP called "Bad Vibes", which was drenched in the obscure sounds as his first EP. However, it was evident that Laufer refined his sound and created a more atmospheric environment for his listeners. The tracks have a more definitive beat and rhythm as well as barely audible sounds which become the center of the track itself. Most reviews of "Bad Vibes" have raved about how this young, talented DJ is really making a mark in this genre whilst finding his own sound simultaneously.

This song hits me on a spiritual level I can't explain. I know some hear just electronic noise. But I feel and hear something so much more.
Cool Guy
I've never felt more connected to an album before. Reaches out to me on a spiritual level.

Boards of canada - music has the right to children, do you know that one?

ik it will be years before anyone sees this comment but i just want to say this song is the best fucking thing ive found in a long time. I listen to it every once in a while when i want to feel. I've listened to it sober, totally stoned out of my mind, on acid, deep in the darkness, it always gives me the same effect. absolute euphoria and i even start tearing up more often than not. Thank you Shlohmo. Whenever things start talking a bad turn, this song plays in my head reminding me that it will always be here despite whatever happens to me

Hey I am here with you friend. Coming back around years later myself. Be well and easy

this is still his best work, imo. it's really a special album and this is such a wistful track.
Percolatus
the percussion just makes the song, it gives it that touch of uncertainty, and it just flows so nicely.
GettingHyphy
his drums are too nice
dumbassbeat15
While listening to this song I imagine myself being alone in an art museum at night, naked - amazing song !
kouhai !!!
that watery vulnerable feeling when you're struggling to keep it together in public and rage-induced goosebumps spread all over your body and all you wanna do is scream and scream and scream.... yep.
