Netherfriends

**Netherfriends** is the brainchild of Chicago-born musician and producer Shawn Rosenblatt, a genre-blending artist known for his playful, experimental approach to music. Starting as a solo project in the late 2000s, Rosenblatt gained attention for his ambitious "#Netherfriends50" initiative, where he recorded a song in all 50 U.S. states, blending indie pop, psychedelia, and electronic beats. His sound often leans into lo-fi textures, cheeky lyrics, and a laid-back vibe that nods to cannabis culture—a theme that pops up in tracks like "Weed 2," "Rosin," and "Pflu Szn."

Over the years, Netherfriends has evolved into a shapeshifting act, dipping into trap beats, hip-hop influences, and even quirky, hyper-local storytelling (see "Kids Trap Bugs" or "Furniture Porn"). His recent releases, like "Cash" and "Cold Room Killers," showcase his knack for merging gritty, DIY production with catchy hooks, proving he’s still unafraid to keep things weird and wonderfully unpredictable. Based in Los Angeles, Rosenblatt continues to crank out music that feels like a late-night hang with your most creatively unhinged friend.
