It’s been a long time since we’ve heard from Henry Laufer, the LA-based producer known as Shlohmo. Shlohmo came out of the same beat-music scene as guys like Flying Lotus. His 2011 debut album Bad Vibes was heavy on ominous murk, but it also had melodies. He went on to release the 2014 mixtape No More with the R&B star Jeremih and to produce for artists like Post Malone, Yung Lean, Joji, Angel Du$t, and SALEM. Shlohmo hasn’t released a new album of his own since 2019’s The End, but now he’s coming back with a new one called Repulsor on Halloween.
