Listen to SHLOHMO's latest remix of Samo Sound Boy's acid-house track 'Your Love'.

Who knew that 909 acid could get so #emotional? Yep, the prolific LA-based producer and leader of the WEDIDIT collective, SHLOHMO has returned with yet another stellar remix, this time focusing on the deep acid-house track 'Your Love' by BODY HIGH label boss, SAMO SOUND BOY.

And, boy is it a match made in wavy heaven...

SHLOHMO takes the house track, originally based around a steady 4/4 groove filled with 303 acid hooks, and skews it out of proportion, melting the work down to a slow moving vibe filled with retro synth-string layers, manipulated vocal licks and dense drum-machine layers saturated with thick bass tones.

Despite the radical change in tone and tempo, the essence of the original still shines through. The acid-house 303 hooks that are the focus of the original track are still present in SHLOHMO's re-working however they are pushed to the background and are there to be as heard as an ornament. The real core of this remix is the rhythm, percussion and bass.

As with all SHLOHMO tracks, there is a certain type of emotional motif present that is somehow weaved into the precise combination of vocal cutting and synth-work - and this remix of 'Your Love' is no exception. SHLOHMO, once again proves his worth as one of the most forward thinking producers in the game today. Definitely something to put into your late night, after-hours playlists.
