about
Clouded Slum is a 24 year old New York City based producer who began producing in college after developing an obsession with hip-hop music. Having grown up playing guitar, bass, drums, and more, and with influences ranging from Animal Collective, to Black Milk, to Bill Evans, Clouded Slum is a producer who isn’t afraid to make challenging, innovative music. Clouded Slum started off by sharpening his skills producing more standard hip-hop beats, favoring a jazzy sound often driven by soulful piano lines and melodic horns. He has since worked with the likes of Sterling Duns, The Hardwork Movement, and most notably L.A. based rapper Co$$, with whom he is currently working with on a variety of projects. Co$$ states that, "Clouded Slum’s production is the perfect blend of soul samples and jazz influence. I really feel like the beats are compatible to my style, some of my best new work is over Clouded’s production." When he’s not producing for rappers, Clouded Slum likes to make challenging instrumentals that showcase his wide range of influences, which eventually lead to the creation of a solo album of experimental songs. He’s finally ready to release this record, called Atlas Grammar, on January 28, 2014, via HiPNOTT Records.
