The Ooz

A sprawling, 19-track descent into nocturnal London. Murky jazz chords and slurred baritone vocals drift through a thick fog of reverb and urban field recordings.

It sounds like a jazz band playing at the bottom of a very deep, very dirty well.

A dense, claustrophobic exploration of urban loneliness and existential drift.

Low Energy-0.9σ

It runs a touch cooler and more held-back than this artist's baseline.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The transition from the skeletal jazz of Biscuit Town into the frantic, train-like chug of The Locomotive.
The moment the saxophone wails through the thick reverb on Dum Surfer, sounding like a ghost in a dive bar.
The claustrophobic, underwater vocal processing on Slush Puppy that makes the lyrics feel like they are drowning.
