revisiting the artists that started it all, the odd boys return to sol asylum for another full length ep on the label. bringing their known flavor of funk and all things odd, we are happy to present the seventh release on sol asylum filled with >cosmic energy<. vortex shows the boys fine tuned producing skills and showcases their well-developed expertise with analog production techniques to create futuristic sounds. the elegant track takes us to a far off place with traveling basslines and glimmering synths with just enough dirt recorded from their analog tape to get that distinctive odd sound. taking us back to ancient egypt with pyramid we are taken into a thought forming incubator of divine cosmic landscapes with swinging razor blade hats, pulsating synth lines, rolling techno grooves and their signature tweaked percussion. finishing off this planetary trip through the odd galaxy with sphere, we are orbited into an emotional realm with alluring pads that are accompanied by arpeggiated synth lines that levitate you to a state of bliss.

early support from raresh, fred p. julietta, dana ruh!! after a first year of spellbinding releases, sol asylum returns in 2015 with a fresh various artist’s compilation featuring three finely crafted tracks from the sol asylum crew to kick-start the labels second year. bringing together a family of artists who have been there since the very beginning. starting off with the odd boys danny and damian, we go all the way back to the first release with a brand new remix of broken spell. whisking us away to a parallel universe of this odyssey, this remix is masterly conjured into a percussive exploration of the planet of odd. following the odd ones, julie marghilano unleashes another side of sol asylum with dragon drops. she unveils her known atmospheric soundscapes but with a heavily detailed rhythmic twist, made by experimenting with her field recordings to create a more stripped down sound that shows her range and versatility. last but certainly not least, miss jools calima brings the ep to a triumphant closure like a mystical fog. the elements of the track melt into drowning synths with crackling percussion and the elegantly designed grooves that levitate us steadily through the hypnotic melodies. the percussive strength of each track, while still being diverse links this collaboration of like-minded family members together as a cohesive potion.
