Jazzy horns, bumping basslines, slithering synths, and a funk-filled groove – obviously we’re talking about an Opiuo track. Specifically, we’re referring to the New-Zealand native’s latest release, “Ginger Lizard,” that made its world debut on Feb. 2.
In classic Opiuo style, the release is funky, cheeky, and has the power to make any dancefloor wiggle all around. It’s a golden piece of funk-inspired bass music and highlights Opiuo’s timeless ability to make incredibly loud yet impossibly clean and punchy tracks.
“I wanted to release a bunch of material in a different form than a straight up album,” says Opiuo. “The record is about doing whatever I want. No rules or the common restrictions I put on myself, like telling a story when doing an album. It includes some super epic recordings I did in New Orleans when I was there late last year. All the music is super varied… fast and slow, banging and mellow.”
The single preceded the release of Opiuo’s eagerly anticipated EP – Syzygy 01 – scheduled for release on March 2.
Check out “Ginger Lizard” and get to grooving – we’ll be doing the same for the rest of the week.
