MTV Iggy reviewed Tunde Olaniran’s Electro futurism: “ As stylistically and vocally unfettered, and well-equipped with old-school flow and R&B chops, he’s got a classic sensibility. However, he points it in all in the direction of the future with riveting delivery and never glances backward. Part of the futuristic feel comes from his stripped-down, D.I.Y. approach. It feels raw and new because there’s never anything between you and the song. Oh, and the lyrics are deep.”
Very excited to share a remix track I made for “Refinanced,” a new mixtape from Vancouver’s Hot Sex and High Finance.
I met them last year when I played Olio Festival and Rifflandia last year in Vancouver. We’ve been working on some collaborative things, this being the first.
“Patrick Bateman (Tunde Olaniran Remix)” is on the bmore/nola bounce tip, with some added vocals by me. After visiting and vibing with BC in general, I’m excited to share this track with you. Enjoy!
