Recognized as one of the main techno pioneers and influential artists of the recent time, Shlomi has the kind of impact usually reserved for inbound meteors, the reason for which is buried in a ground swell of genre-defying appreciation and support. a comment taken from a recent "Radio 1" interview provides a probable insight as to why his productions are hitting such a broad mark, "No matter if it’s hard or soft, it just needs to touch your mind, body and soul at the same time. That's what I call a 'Good Record'."

Tracks such as Sea Of Sand, After Love and Tel Aviv Garden have become engraved on Top 10 bestseller lists all over, whilst his release "Crop Duster" has already been described by every aspects as '...a classy piece of Underground fodder...,' not to mention his worldwide funky techno anthem with Ovum Recordings, "Freakside," which became his trademark as "the biggest club track of 2007"

The accolades from the press don’t end there either; his sets have also been cited for their unique ability to cohesively traverse genres; DJmag positively wrote in a profile article, 'Shlomi's sets are full with warm and unique sounds that makes you feel like you are going back to the better days of music, it was something I can’t define just by one word, if I must I will call it something between house and techno. With his fascinating technical skills, accurate programming and music selection, you can just feel the magic in the air.' Quite a statement.
