Clams Casino
Clams Casino emerged as a key producer in the early 2010s cloud rap wave, building a body of hazy, sample-driven work with artists including Lil B and ASAP Rocky. Born Michael Thomas Volpe on May 12, 1987, he is a record producer and songwriter from Nutley, New Jersey.
His productions have also appeared on records by Lil Peep, Vince Staples, Joji, the Weeknd and Mac Miller. Alongside his original work, Clams Casino has remixed songs by Big K.R.I.T., Washed Out and Lana Del Rey, moving between hip hop, electronic music and alternative R&B without separating those approaches into distinct projects.
Volpe signed with Columbia Records for his debut studio album, 32 Levels, released in 2016. The album narrowly entered the Billboard 200. Under the Clams Casino name, his work is closely associated with the atmospheric, experimental production that helped define cloud rap's early sound.
