ONRA Long Distance

April 4th 2010 by SIMcommander | Tags: , ,
Onra shifts his sound from this introspective kinda abstract beats Like on his Chinoiseries and 108 releases for the Favorite label, from his home country, to a much more electro funky swingbeat kinda sound which refers more to Dam Funk. The record starts with this collab with Washington native Olivier DaySoul. It's amazing funky in a vintage kinda way. The synth bass is dominant as the vintage chorus lines are. It's all 80ies feel is real but also a bit confusing because we bought an Onra 12 inch. The voice of Olivier DaySoul is so warm... you might remember him from voicing on Hudmo' recent Just Decided (from the Butter LP). Rock On is so bass thick when it starts (same kinda bass synth) with reverse sucking hi-hats killin it.... The voice samples are making you hype... High Hopes is voiced by Reggie B who released on Circulations in the past, has a warm R&B soul style which fits good in this 80ies feel. I have to think about this one. I like the record but i'ts difficult to find Onra on this one. Confused? I hope the 2LP later in May gives a, better, insight on the new directions....
