Jane Remover

Remover grew up with their parents and twin sister in northern New Jersey[3] and is currently enrolled at a college in the Philadelphia area.[5] They identify as non-binary[6] and use the pronouns they/she.[7]

Remover's interest in music production stems back as far as 2011, inspired by dubstep producers like Skrillex, Kill The Noise, and Virtual Riot.[8] They would later go on to produce different styles of EDM in the mid-2010s, citing Porter Robinson as their biggest influence.[9] From electronic music, Remover's production became more trap-centric in around 2018; they cited artists such as Trippie Redd, Earl Sweatshirt, and Tyler, the Creator as inspirations.[9] Guest production then became a large part of Remover's early career, with them being a member of multiple SoundCloud collectives such as PlanetZero and graveem1nd. Their production gradually became more digicore oriented.[9]

In early 2020, Remover began self-producing and releasing their own works on SoundCloud. One of Remover's first solo releases, "what's my age again?", gained popularity after being shared on Twitter.[9] Their first project, the extended play Teen Week, was released on February 26, 2021 under the pseudonym dltzk.[10] The track "Homeswitcher" reached 100,000 streams on SoundCloud within the first two weeks of its release.[5]

After the release of several more one-off singles, Remover began teasing the release of their first full-length album, Frailty, and releasing singles for it in June 2021. After the release of the tracks "How to Lie", "Pretender", and "Search Party", Frailty was released via the deadAir label on November 12, 2021.[11] The album was acclaimed by publications such as Pitchfork, who placed the album at #47 on their list of the best albums of 2021.[12]

On June 27, 2022, Remover announced the retirement of the dltzk pseudonym, and introduced the name Jane Remover. On the same date, they released the single "Royal Blue Walls". In Remover's statement, they said "the stage name dltzk has never sat right with [them]" and that it "reminds [them] of a period of [their] life [they'd] like to move past". They also announced that the Teen Week EP would be abridged, as they were uncomfortable with the project as it was originally released.[13] This change went into effect on October 10, 2022, and four songs were removed from the project.[10]

Remover's second single released as Jane Remover, "Contingency Song", was released on November 16, 2022.[14] They were the opening act for Brakence's Hypochondriac tour from November 26 to December 22, 2022.[15]
