“Driven by the early electronic influences in koby’s production, the song sways between silky R&B harmonics, the gritty saturation of its’ percussion and low end, and a smooth topline kicked off by our homie Andrew Weitz. It originally started as a composition piece for koby’s master’s recital, and with influence and direction from our boys, evolved into the song that it is today. “

Music, Original MixComment
Manipulating an accurately self-proclaimed genre of vibes, LMBO strikes once again with their original track, “Dysphoria.” The twosome carries the burden of collaborating cross-country, while one member hustles in New Orleans, Louisiana and the other is a prominent member of the Michigan music scene.

"Dysphoria” is set to be a breakout single for the ever-so-unique LMBO, fossilizing their imprint as one of the most exciting acts to watch this year.
