Review: Oceanvs Orientalis is Safak Ozkutle and the artist's latest album, Portrait of the Obscure via Damian Lazarus' Crosstown Rebels label delves well into the depths of Istanbul-based producer musical universe. Building on three standout singles released over the past four months, this nine-track LP adds further spotlight to his ability to blend diverse cultural influences into sonically inspiring, dance music landscapes. From the enchanting synthscapes of "Pulse Antique" to the haunting atmospheres of "IL Lupo" featuring Tooker, each track offers a unique exploration of experimental house sounds. Collaborations with artists like Idil Mese and Tilahun Gessesse add layers of depth to the album, making it a must-listen for fans of vibrant electronic music.
