Michigan-born Koby Berman and Mike Swartz, better known as LMBO, are finishing out their 2018 strong, by getting back-to-back Hype Machine #1’s, and garnering support from likes of The Chainsmokers and Matoma. The duo, which originally met in 2010 after botching auditions for their high school play, have carefully crafted a unique sound over the years, that perfectly sits somewhere between darker hip-hop and groovy yet simplistic electronic music. Their productions dazzle with lush atmospherics, clean percussion, and all encompassing synths that help guide the listener through a sonic journey that is LMBO. Now as a their closing act for the year, they release “Netter Bot,” that comes as a mysterious and dynamic work, that will leave the listener wondering why they hadn’t heard of the duo sooner.
