Strange Behaviour: Urulu [Los Angeles/Berlin]

Strange Behaviour are excited to bring you Urulu, one of the breakthrough artists of 2016 for an exclusive Wellington show.

When Cali boy Urulu, aka Talyor Freels, isn’t soaking up the sunshine in Orange County, he’s creating superbly produced beats in his Berlin studio. He’s built up an impressive catalogue over the last five years via a multitude of highly respected labels; Dirt Crew, Let’s Play House, Needwant and Andy Hart’s Voyage Recordings to name a few. During this time he’s worked with Chaos in the CBD, Sage Caswell, and Steve Huerta. While his own imprint Amadeus, has gone from strength to strength in the last couple of years.

His latest endeavour is the ‘Air Pacific’ EP on the charmingly stylish New York label Casine, with Urulu delivering a blend of dreamy analogue sounds, uplifting disco samples and luscious chords. It might be winter in his new hometown of Berlin, but his productions are pure bottled sunshine.

He’s also a beast on the decks, armed with the chutzpah to mix gnarlier Detroit and Chicago emanations with modern, envelope-pushing modern house sounds.
