Oli XL

Oli surfaced with the now cult classic "Rogue Intruder, Soul Enhancer" — his unique patchwork sampling style paired with personal field recordings & shy fragmented vocals, resulting in his now trademark sound, recalling the playfulness of Basement Jaxx as much as humorless glitch.

These days his influence can be heard and seen everywhere — But after signing to iconic label Warp, Oli was nowhere to be found. Talk about why the label was stopping Oli began to spread, with fans flooding comment sections with "Free Oli".

After a 4 year label struggle, the much-rumored album "Lick The Lens" took its first step with Part 1 (out of 3). Self-funded, and joined by Chanel Beads, Ecco2k, James K, Ouri, Part 1 refined on everything that made his debut a classic, while somehow still sounding years into the future.

Now free, Oli is sharpening the blade for Part 2.
