Boonlorm

Boonlorm is among several monikers owned by Brooklyn-based DJ/manufacturer/electronic musician Skooby Laposky. Laposky started getting involved with music as an adolescent in Iowa functioning as a celebration promoter. These celebrations led him to utilize ’70s disco/deep home maven DJ Wolf and down the road with Detroit techno star Theo Parrish. Laposky proved helpful mostly beneath the name Pocketknife, carrying out remixes for performers as wide-ranging as Lykke Li, Paul Weller, and Adele, aswell as issuing his very own sounds on some limited-run 12″s. Boonlorm cropped up in 2012 as an expansion of the task Laposky was carrying out as Pocketknife. Still rooted solidly in house customs, the noises for Boonlorm paths were sourced nearly totally from recordings of ready piano and designed with organic, unfiltered digital drums, nodding simultaneously to both minimal strategy of early Chicago home as well as the experimental leanings of avant-garde heroes like John Cage. A full-length record entitled String Statistics saw discharge in early 2014.
