LP released: Mar 04, 2016
UK producer Murlo follows his 2015 vocal EP Jasmine with the instrumental Odyssey, his boldest artistic statement to date. Eight tracks deep, Odyssey is a winding journey through Murlo's fantastical world, where weighty bass, soaring melodies, and frenetic percussion all hold positions of power. The lead track, Moodswung, constructs a maze of memorable melodies in a harp-laden dreamscape. Cascade is a club tune as intricate as a symphony, with synths running over each other with the urgency and beauty of a waterfall. With the majesty of Lanced, the melodic freneticism of Hunter, the other-worldliness of High Rise, and the club delirium of Furnace, this is signature Murlo - instantly recognizable yet never predictable. Odyssey is a record free of genre; it's uncompromising yet accessible experimental electronica at it's best, firmly establishing Murlo as a unique figure in the UK underground. Cover art by Murlo. |
