Jeremy Olander – Murphy [Vivrant]
Vivrant’s third release of 2022 brings label founder Jeremy Olander’s first original release since July of last year.
‘Murphy’ has wreaked havoc at the Swede’s spring and summer shows at prominent clubs and festivals in the likes of The Bow in Buenos Aires, Sound in Los Angeles, Cercle Festival in Paris, Watergate in Berlin and will be formally released on August 12.
The record is an emotionally charged journey characterised by a melancholic yet uplifting and infectious lead melody. Contrasted against a thumping drum pattern and sinister FX detailing, ‘Murphy’ makes for a surefire weapon at clubs and festivals alike in the summer of 2022.
Refusing to be pigeonholed in any box, ‘Murphy’ is a bonafide genre-transcending record that breaks rules and maintains an element of surprise. Infused with elements of epic movie scores, 90s trance, and a dash of Olander’s discernable Pryda-heritage, the 35-year old Swede continues to push the envelope and carve out his own stylistic niche that separates and elevates him.
