Meet Oriol: real name Oriol Singhji, born in Barcelona. He lives between London and Cambridge now and possesses some serious musical skills. “Night and Day” connects the dots between Oriol’s musical tastes, from the 70’s fusion and experimentation of Herbie Hancock and Stevie Wonder to the lush house of Theo Parrish, Larry Heard and Recloose. He rewires these influences into something totally exuberant and soulfully fresh. His debut album “Night And Day” has the depth of musicality and subtlety of an artist who knows exactly what he wants, and it’s also the perfect summer album. Pre-order this double album (Planet Mu) HERE via Rush Hour if you know what’s good for you.
