2015 repress - from the first glimpses of henry laufers work as shlohmo, it was clear that the la native and visual artist turned self-taught musician was onto something. with an effortless grasp on sound design, laufer combines deceptively simple and emotive melodies, subtle bass drops and swinging slow motion drums. his early work has placed him at the forefront of a new wave of rising talent amongst west coast producers… inspired by the desire to write songs and create a release of full-range instrumentation and vocals all his own, laufer promptly began home-recording >bad vibes<, his proper full-length debut album for the friends of friends label. some might say the songs on >bad vibes< represent the spawn of a new rhythm and blues - one that swings and sways under the backbone of henrys own take on modern electronic music. augmented with delicate slide guitar playing, homemade synth sounds and lilting, tuneful melodies, shlohmos latest output is one that will take you places - specifically the un-paralleled vibes swirling through this young mans head.

the -i love vinyl - open air- has established itself in the beautiful thuringian north and attracts more and more vinyl fans every year. this is due not only to the familiar, nature-loving atmosphere between fields, meadows and forests on the southern slopes of the kyffhaeuser mountains, but also due to the attention to detail when it comes to decoration, line-up and most important the sound. since 2009 ‘i love vinyl’ attracts international celebrities like monika kruse, panpot, dj hell, mousse t., karotte, andhim, alle farben, oliver koletzki, tiefschwarz, modeselektor, tobi neumann, mathias kaden, daniel stefanik, thomas schumacher, blawan, dapayk & padberg, douglas greed and jake the rapper. the official compilation for i love vinyl open air in 2015 hosts three of this years main artists wankelmut, bebetta and markus suckut. all tracks on this 12inch are first time exclusive vinyl cuts.

dear wanderer, ramona is happy to present the video dead, chinaski s debut-­ep for live at robert johnson. originally hailing from the high north of germany, rostock near the rough and stormy sea, the young man with interests in 80s video-­aesthetics and vintage synthesizers is now calling offenbach his home­turf. chinaskis ep starts out with time to kill, a straight forward hypnotizing jacker directly heading to the synthesized happiness. midnight workout features a different side to the young talent sensitive placed synth harmonies packed in a vintage-­pop interlude. after a journey through more harmonious domains, night school turns the page again and picks up on those synth-waves and put ramona away from her calm drive through the midnight heat, right on the dancefloor mesmerizing analogue deep housevibes all over the place.hide society steps out of context and mixes chinaskis affection for the warmth of these marvelous synth-­sounds with trippy post-­breaking or even proto-­hiphop sounds topped off with a weird vocal sample. the title­track the video dead summons all emotional power ramona could implant into a synthesizer, the heartbeat like reduced kick-­drum and hihats floating around the track are mostly incidental or not even there for the ears. purely visual.
