After slowly becoming a key voice in the leftfield club sphere and appearing in compilations on leading experimental music outfits PAN and Posh Isolation, Oli XL vastly expanded the world of his already distinguished sound with the critically acclaimed debut album “Rogue Intruder, Soul Enhancer”, released in 2019 on Stockholm record label Year0001. With a dissected free-hand approach to the rhythms of the UK rave continuum, he pairs fragmented sampling techniques with personal field recordings & processed vocals—resulting in a bizarre but emotionally rich musical universe recalling the playfulness of Basement Jaxx as much as humourless glitch.
Following a small set of vocal-driven live shows diving deeper into the album’s pop sensibility, Oli has as the first-ever Swedish artist spent the last year carefully crafting a new collection of music for the seminal Warp Records.
