OBLI DROPS DEBUT EP ON ODESZA’S FOREIGN FAMILY COLLECTIVE – [LISTEN]

Earlier this December, LA-based music producer obli dropped his debut EP “Change,” a compilation of four smooth electronic beats, via ODESZA’S Foreign Family Collective. The track “Hold It” was the first song to be released prior to the EP dropping in full, and it received strong support from “Morning Becomes Eclectic” on KCRW 89.9FM, a popular network in LA. Originally from Newark, Ohio, obli moved to Los Angeles to join a band called Rooms, which eventually exposed him to electronic music, and the rest was history.

Obli was a recent addition to ODESZA’s Seattle-based Foreign Family Collective, but a strong one at that. Obli stood alongside other talented artists in FFC, which included Rufus Du Sol, Memba, Jai Wolf, Big Wild, pluko, and many others. Prior to joining FFC, obli caught the eyes of ODESZA with his two-track EP “recourse / hold you,” which featured gentle electronic melodies and guitar refrains. In 2021, obli plans to release remixes for Big Wild, mai.la, BRONSON, and ford., among other creative projects, which fans of FFC hungrily await.
