Eric Lau

London-based DJ/producer Eric Lau works within the realms of left-field hip-hop and R&B. Known more for collaborations and consistent albums than he is big singles, Lau has issued several full-lengths of differing approaches with a natural stylistic evolution. Lau's first album was New Territories (2008), a predominantly song-oriented set with vocals from the likes of Tawiah and Rahel, released on Ubiquity. After that, he moved to Kilawatt for Makin' Sound (2010), Quadrivium (2011), and One of Many (2013). The first two were strictly instrumental showcases for his dreamlike, sample-laced beats. Lau reverted to instrumentals for the First Word release Examples (2017). His discography also includes work with Hil St. Soul, Homeboy Sandman, Guilty Simpson, and Yussef Kamaal. ~ Andy Kellman
