Flitting between Manchester and Brussels, Oceaán has an international outlook and an international sound.
Flecks of R&B litter his songwriting, with the producer able to de-construct pop tropes and piece them together in strange new tapestries.
Working with Chess Club Records, upcoming EP 'The Grip' will be released on November 17th. Here's the producer himself to explain more:
"I wanted to explore the duality between lyrical context and conceptual production. Taking influences from many facets of electronic music, my main aim was to investigate the effectiveness of songwriting within the electronic plane – whether it be marrying a lyrical concept with similar tonal aspects (inherently present within the production), and more importantly, creating and displaying disparity between them."
New cut 'Veritas' is online now. Woozy rhythms merge with technicolour textures, all held together by Oceaán's effortlessly soulful approach.
Check it out now.

22 London The Waiting Room
23 Manchester The Eagle
