Off The Meds is a Swedish-South African crew based in Stockholm, consisting of
producers Adrian Lux, Carli Lo¨f and Ma°ns Glaeser with vocalist Kamohelo Khoaripe.
The band first appeared on Studio Barnhus with the Ethio-jazz sampling hip-house gem
Currency Low, one of the standouts on the Stockholm label’s 2018 compilation Studio
Barnhus Volym 1. This was followed by 2019’s ravey smash single Belter, which came
paired with a much-lauded remix by London top selector Joy Orbison.
Their self-titled debut album arrives on Studio Barnhus in late 2020. First album single
Karlaplan was recently played by Four Tet on Benji B’s show on BBC Radio 1, while
second single Wena got included in hotly tipped UK garage reformist Conducta’s recent
Resident Advisor podcast.
