Been listening over ‘Bad Vibes’ by Shlohmo this week, ‘just another’ one of those LA downbeat producers, as FACT magazine rightly suggests you may mistake them. This album however takes all the things Flying Lotus, Rustie and Co. do; shuffling beats often made out of strange everyday recordings, but adds a secret ingredient. This ingredient is something mystical, something spacious, and something very atmospheric; we can probably track the source of this in his influences, it’s no surprise he has popped out remixes of Burial recently. Some argue that the LA instrumental hip hop beat scene is too crowded at the moment; we disagree, each of these producers is brilliant in their own right. Many seem to agree and Shlohmo features on theFACT mix this week with an eclectic selection.
