In the wake of his warmly received debut single 'Coconut Coast', the Spanish-Trinidadian, but Cambridge-based Oriol serves a heatwave of electronic jazzfunk augmentations for Planet Mu. He really honed his sound at the CDr nights in London alongside the likes of Floating Points and the Eglo heads, a place where boogie informed hiphop and soul fired Broken Beats melded into one another to produce the rare groove sound of 2010. The vibe of 'Night & Day' is helplessly happy and warm, soaked with a spectrum of Bermuda-short colours and a halcyon dazed stupor that says, fuck it, lets boogie. Of course, Oriol wasn't actually old enough to join in on the 80s weekender vibe so it's all second hand references mixed with properly up to date techniques, incorporating traces of Breakbeat and IDM into his florid electrosoul signatures. Fans of Floating Points, Falty DL, Herbie Hancock and Hudson Mohawke, let your soul glow!
