American electronic musician Laurel Halo is presently residing in Berlin. The Wire awarded her debut album Quarantine, which was published on Hyperdub, album of the year. Chance of Rain and Dust, as well as a number of EPs and the mini-album Raw Silk Uncut Wood, were released after that. In addition to her experience playing in free jazz ensembles and working as a college radio DJ, she also draws inspiration from the music of Berlin, London and Detroit. 
On the collaborative, "telepathic" Terepa EP, Halo collaborated with Rashad Becker, Julia Holter and NH'Koxyen. Halo also contributed a rendition of a long-lost Karen Dalton song to the Tompkins Square compilation, Remembering Mountains. Halo also worked together with Lisa Gerrard and John Cale to perform Cale's music at the Arts Centre Melbourne. In Situ, a double-EP, was released by Halo for the Honest Jon's record label in London. The soundtrack for Still Be Here, a joint work with Japanese virtual pop singer Hatsune Miku, was written by Laurel as well. Germany's HKW hosted the premiere. Then Halo published her third album, Dust, which featured songs by people like Max D, Klein, Lafawndah, Michael Salu, Julia Holter and Eli Keszler. Numerous outlets praised the album favorably.
Rob Schröder and the Dutch design studio Metahaven produced the documentary film Possessed, for which Halo composed the music. She claimed that her involvement in the movie served as inspiration for the Raw Silk Uncut Wood mini-album she released on Latency Recordings later that year. She collaborated on the Possessed score with cellist Oliver Coates and percussionist Eli Keszler and they both contributed to the mini-six album's ambient instrumental tracks. On the joint EP Tru / Opal / The Light Within You, which was released by Livity Sound Recordings, Halo also collaborated with Bristol-based musician Hodge..
