Octavius
Based in California Octavius has been described as a mix of "San Francisco sneer, L.A. lust and Oakland grime" which is a pretty good way to start to describe his music.
His second LP, Laws has been a slightly over looked classic combining fractured beats with blown-out pop and hip hop.
For this podcast Octavius has done something a little different. He has presented us with a mix of eerie soul songs titled Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea - The Definitive Girl Group Mixtape. The mix is inspired by the In Dreams Scene from Blue Velvet and Octavius' sound in stamped all over this mix.
