Berlin-based producer FloFilz collaborates with UK Jazz supremos Blue Lab Beats for their new single, Skybox. Merging elements of Boom-bap Rap and avant Jazz, Skybox is Flo’s fifth and final single ahead of his forthcoming album, Close Distance due next month via Melting Pot Music. Regarded as a ‘pivotal force in UK music’, Blue Lab Beats recent album Motherland Journey strengthened their reputation as one of the best Jazz duo’s in the scene.

Exposed to music from a young age, FloFilz grew up in Belgium before moving to Aachen, Germany where he studied the violin and classical music, while also playing in orchestras. In addition to his parents, who were both musicians, he cites Hip-Hop icons A Tribe Called Quest, J Dilla and Madlib as key influences. Recognised as one of Germany’s most in-demand producers, the self-taught bedroom beatmaker has built his reputation, led by his seductive blend of Lo-Fi, Soul and Jazz-influenced groves. Taking great inspiration from London's Jazz scene, Flo has previously collaborated with the likes of Alfa Mist, Barney Artist, Biig Piig and K, Le Maestro.

200M streams later, Flo has evolved into one of the most recognised LoFi-turned-HiFi producers. With an unmatched musical output this year, collaborations with homegrown talent including Alfa Mist and Jerome Thomas have contributed to the growing anticipation for the album. Other guest features on the project include KeepVibesNear and Hunter Rose.
