Shlohmo - Ghost

Shlohmo - Ghost
Another student of the LA downbeat skool, young Shlomo has been proving himself as one to watch with a recent XLR8R podcast and now his debut LP for Friends Of Friends, featuring remixes from Tokimonsta, devonwho, Fulgeance and Low Limit (aka Lazer Sword). Like his Cali peers Samiyam or Flylo, Shlohmo is one of those cosmically inclined cats, producing a sun-bleached sound that transfers its laidback and juicily psychedelic charge like a glugged carton of spiked OJ. The ethreal boom bap of 'Post Atmosphere' is one of our personal highlights, as is the immense 'Hot Boxing The Cockpit', sounding like Rustie meets Paavoharju, or even with the exquisitely gloopy electro-soul of 'Antigravity'. The savvy list of remixes only makes this an even more enticing package, including Tokimonsta's intricately folded remake of 'Hot Boxing...', backed next to Fulgeance's gangsta squeezing version of 'Antigravity' and Low Limit's incredible Theo-laced house-soul mix, further proving why his name is going to be every-bloody-where this year! Shlohmo stands out from his chosen crowd of beat-makers with a delicate personality and distinction that requires your attention if you've been bewitched by Ras G or Flylo.

[@darkassasin101]

Yes. i love it when he throws ambient chatter/natural people making noise. Ambiance over everything.

[@PlaceNameHeere]

it's become my new favourite thing in songs. It makes it sound full and more personal

[@VioletRocketOfficial]

Noticed that too and paid so much attention to it. Damn that sensitive ear, happens too often. Makes me not focus on the song

[@PlaceNameHeere]

Violet Rocket Holy shit i do that too hahaha. Also i think i follow you on soundcloud. Weird seeing you here!

[@ncshuriken]

Anything to add to the atmospherics, feel & mood. Fills up dead air and adds depth to your more ambient productions. I usually use stuff like that in intro's, breaks & outro's, or anywhere where theres only a couple elements in play.

[@dinorap1]

+darkassasin101 I think the ambience Shlomo uses is one of the things that makes his songs so emotional-sounding... it just has some special effect to it that I love

[@stephaniedelarua-c512]

the first time i seen this was in 2010...this never ever ever ever gets old

[@ManicMindTrick]

+stephanie de la rua Nice to see you come back. It doesn't feel like 5 years ago. Time flies.

[@MrDmacc1]

Agreed, this is soo dope,

[@austinklohn533]

It doesn't feel like 7 years ago

[@proflogik4110]

i still bump this gem on tha regular

[@ManicMindTrick]

Nice to hear.

[@5Lek]

Still watch this sometimes! Good memories

[@skateinpeace69]

this is the soundtrack of childhood

[@lumos2maxima]

for those that don't know, the video is a game called AudioSurf ( i think ) where you can load your tracks and go on a 'journey' like this with the music :)

[@pL0ydism]

Shlohmo and AudioSurf. Gotta love it.

[@MakaveliEngaged]

thought i heard something thundering... paused the video, was just my heat turning on in the house... but how it synced with this song... greatness :)

[@kenaujak]

Ten years... wow

[@squiffy5308]

i like you people

[@ivanintencity]

I've been sick and high this entire week. This guy's music kept coming up.. Then then rain started pouring, and I did nothing but chill to this artist.

[@2minuteparody]

The music was so calm, but the video made me super anxious.

[@anamaria2526]

i have only one thing to say :i love Shlohmo..

[@yak00zy]

I knew right away I that those piano samples sound unbelievably familiar, took me two fucking days to remember the lyrics... Płomień 81 - Historie Z Sąsiedztwa

[@TheGeeh92]

enjoyed a slice of pie while listening.

[@awsomeadi]

i can't say what it is.. but shlohmos most definitely got it

[@dineshn]

Still hitting

[@TheFuckOffMe]

2012 summer in my friends garage blazing it up good memories

[@ohmanyourecool1]

God it's like going down the highway at 140 mph not giving a fuck

[@dylanwho6299]

+ohmanyourecool1 on acid

[@dinorap1]

+ohmanyourecool lmao

[@one_man_community]

Sounds like what plenty of producers including shamana are doing these days. 10 years ahead of its time?

[@dinorap1]

OMG why isn't this song on Spotify? I hate it when artists have so many great songs that aren't on Spotify...

[@Bleyedpe]

man, chill XD

[@Champagnejizzisfancy]

damn this song is so dope

[@great567]

No comment can express how i feel right now.

[@ruivam]

This song is absolutely beautiful. And this video in full view made me trip and fly so high.

[@devappy]

This is amazing....wow, how it makes me feel. It's incredible!

[@overseasgame4706]

still here

[@Niceworkson]

Same

[@diegomonteroy8434]

My friends, the cosmos is at hand! Escape is inevitable. Choose to fight the constructs placed by what you know and let the epitomes and ominous noise guide you! Lyrics of the unsung variety propel you forward into the inner vortexes of color and omnipotence. Potential for greatness comes with no price as long as you follow this sound.

[@arkona1337]

incredibly good.

[@DrZuum]

Simply MMMmmmm.

[@hybridweb]

wow, thank you so much for that video. it was so simple, and extremely beautiful. i can't tell you how much i wanted it to end at the metamorphosing black object

[@jagritkashyap9896]

If this is anything, it's everything to me.

[@user-ie6po9sb1k]

if aliens ever do make it to earth we should play them this first thing and they will love us

[@foreigntaeo4361]

then they will kill us all

[@brajonrondo8456]

[@wekaay]
