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 its best, firmly establishing Murlo as a unique figure in the UK underground. Cover art by Murlo.
