Los Angeles-based producer Shallou continues to tease his highly anticipated The Long Way Home EP via FADER Label. ‘Here’ is a stunning indietronica cut that thrives in a fusion of head-bobbing house and intimate folk touches. It comes on the heels of ‘High Tide’ which was praised by FLOOD for its “lush, lose-yourself-on-the- dancefloor hooks with pulsing beats and shimmering guitar touches.” The track also follows up ‘Heartaches’ which was praised by the likes of EDM.com for its “euphoric dance drop and wistful guitar riff.” In addition, Shallou recently concluded his The Long Way Home tour with a string of sold out shows in Boston, Los Angeles, New York City, and more.

Behind the inspiration of ‘Here,’ Shallou explains, “I spent November and December alone for the 2020 holidays in a barren LA. ‘Here’ is my lonely anthem. I tried to synthesize house elements and folk elements into something unique here.”
As for the forthcoming EP, Shallou adds, “I made the EP entirely in my bedroom and remotely, working with two writers and a few additional musicians just over email and Zoom. It felt like a return to my early days of making music, where everything felt fresh, and I could just enter my own solitary world. It didn’t feel safe for a while to be alone with my own thoughts, but now I had something to channel and an experience to write about.”
Shallou is hot off the success of his 2020 debut album, Magical Thinking, which has reeled in over 80 million streams to date and includes crowd pleasers ‘Older’ featuring Daya, ‘Good Together’ featuring Ashe, and more. The record received praise from the likes of Magnetic Mag for “soaring melodic tracks with collaborations that push the envelope” and reflects “the search to find one’s place in the world.” He topped off 2020 with the summer anthem, ‘I Leave Again,’ in collaboration with French connoisseur Petit Biscuit and is finally prepared to make waves in 2021.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
