sunflwr - On The Record #220 Insomniac Presents - On The Record

sunflwr produces dreamy house music for the dance floor, living room or late night drive. Originally from the San Francisco Bay Area, Lucas Hanson grew up playing bass and piano. He began exploring electronic music in his late teenage years with influences from artists like the Gorillaz, Little Dragon & Bonobo appreciating the blend between the avant-garde, an indie aesthetic and pop. Hanson studied music in New York falling in love with the house music scene there. He began to DJ and produce with a new focus on uptempo songs. After graduation and moving to Los Angeles in 2017 the artist took a hiatus from consistent musical output getting lost in a new career in tech and adjusting to the new changes in life. Striking up a new connection to his artwork and a daily commitment to produce Hanson rediscovered his love of music and personal expression through it. The music started pouring out as ‘sunflwr’ in 2020 in high output. He has since released seven EPs, several singles, remixes and collaborations and become a recognizable player in the lofi house scene with his signature bright, emotive, deep and sun kissed sound. sunflwr is this week's guest #OnTheRecord
