S.L.M.N. comes to play with a new track that everyone can add on their ‘past 1am sus’ playlist. Features by Emerson Brooks add the perfect vocal accompaniment to Luu Breeze’s rhymes; both complimenting the easy mellow vibes S.L.M.N. creates.

With Lido‘s Everything less than a month away (October 7th) the genius composer has graced fans with the second offering from the project entitled ‘Murder’. Opening with chopped and stuttered vocals, the repetition creates an air of confusion.The clearest section echos the words ‘hurt me’ until it morphs into a sound that feels like a final goodbye. As the strings smooth…
