Oilix’s latest album, Dissolved, is a mesmerizing journey through the vibe of ’90s trip hop and downtempo, updated and realized in an exciting new way. Released on Cold Busted, this 13-track odyssey follows up on the Kazakhstan-born producer’s previous EP, Nothing But Summer, and showcases his unique “sunhop” style, blending bright melodies with undeniable grooves.
From the opening track, “Pioggia Della Sera,” listeners are transported to a world of slow-motion bliss, floating above plush sofas as spaced-out tones, gentle guitar, and horn melodies intertwine. This is followed by “Surrealist,” which glides in an addictive slow motion, splashed with rhythm change-ups, eerie synth pads, and haunted murmurings. Another highlight is the title track, “Dissolved,” which immerses one in a pool of swirling synth pads and vibrating sub-bass, creating a sleek and sexy atmosphere that’s impossible to resist.
Oilix’s love for melody shines through in “Return To The Classics,” a cosmic b-boy maneuver that layers deliriously chiming instrumentation and haunting vocal drops over tasty turntable scratches. And the album’s first collaboration with Hirokee on “Dummy” is a stand-out, offering a melancholy trip-hop journey filled with accomplished keyboard riffs and a horn solo that radiates coolness.
Drawing inspiration from downtempo music of the ’90s, Oilix’s music strays from stereotypical styles, instead embracing lounge, trip-hop, and electronic influences that lay the foundation for his head-nod-inducing tracks. Dissolved showcases his ability to craft memorable melodies that linger long after the final note has faded.
With appearances on popular playlists like Jazz Vibes and releases on labels such as Vinyl Digital, Hip Dozer, and Bluewerks, Oilix is poised for even greater success. Dissolved is an essential addition to any downtempo lover’s collection, offering a refreshing and captivating take on the trip-hop genre.

sed: I shouldn't whistle along after all these years - ? Though I might also choose "Above". This LP is wholly tasty. It's where it started for me and one I come back to often. I arrived too late for Seeds, Roots and Fruits double vinyl. Still, I "met" the awesome (eek) folks at Beat Catz and they made me feel better.
