Sofia Hultquist (née Degli Alessandri; born February 7, 1986), better known by her stage name Drum & Lace, is an Italian electronic trip-hop composer.
[3] She cites her early influences as the albums Jagged Little Pill and Magic Kingdom, and musicians of the 1960s and 1970s including Led Zeppelin, Cream, The Who, and The Rolling Stones.
[4] In 2010 she and her husband Ian Hultquist created their side project 'Aislyn' [5] where they remixed tracks for artists such as Neon Indian,[6] Tokyo Police Club[7] and more.
[10] Their albums have received positive reviews from media outlets, with Vehlinggo describing their compositions as "usually cinematic, often danceable, and always compelling."
[12][13] They are known for their "ornate, beat-heavy, pop-infused, ambient electronic" aesthetic and have worked extensively with fashion clients on commissioned projects, including Diane von Fürstenberg, St. John, Lotuff Leather, Atelier Delphine, Palatines, Tanya Taylor, and À Moi for New York Fashion Week.
[21] That same year, Drum & Lace also composed the music and contributed vocals to the soundtrack for the films Silicon Cowboys and My Blind Brother, which starred Jenny Slate, Adam Scott, Zoe Kazan, and Nick Kroll.
