Oceanvs Orientalis teases his highly-anticipated album ‘Portrait of the Obscure’ on Crosstown Rebels with the third and penultimate single ‘Neurality,’ remixed by 8Bit and Cécille head honcho Nick Curly.
Istanbul-based Safak Oz Kutle, aka Oceanvs Orientalis, is a producer and live act who blends rich influences and wide- spanning genres to curate his take on electronic music. The first two singles from his forthcoming album on Damian Lazarus’ legendary Crosstown Rebels have showcased his diverse sound at its fullest, and now the third offering and final single ahead of the LPs release confirms him once again to be a standout talent as he unveils the captivating sonics of ‘Neurality’.
“‘Neurality’ is the third and final single from my new album, “Portrait of the Obscure.” This 122 BPM hypnotic dance track, accompanied by an amazing remix from Nick Curly, combines intricate classic dance rhythms with experimental soundscapes, showcasing a blend of styles and adding a vibrant layer to the album’s diverse soundscape. Mark your calendars for this exciting launch.” – Oceanvs Orientalis.
An absorbing and stirring production, ‘Neutrality’ brings a darkly involving groove that is multi-layered and hypnotic, with several shimmering vocals, jangling percussive lines and ethereal pads all locking you in for an enthralling ride. A remixer who needs little introduction, Nick Curly is as integral to the tech house genre as anyone in the scene, heading up key labels such as 8Bit and Cecile while helping to define the genre as we know it today. His interpretation is deep and warm, with slinky drums carefully deployed amongst vocal whispers that bring human soul.
An excellent final preview into what’s still to come, ‘Neurality’ delivers another exceptional production, leading perfectly into the release of the full-length project this April.
