With Beau Discours, Orphia dives deeper into the shadows, crafting a sound where cold wave and electro collide in a saturated whirlwind. Darker, more organic, this six-track EP marks a major shift in his approach, designed as much for introspection as for the club.
Far from a mere stylistic exercise, Orphia records on tape, pushes saturation to the limit, and lets the raw material breathe, capturing rough, grainy textures. The vocals, buried under distortion, remain minimal and sharp. Balancing tension and nostalgia, Beau Discours captures a sense of urgency, reflecting a chaotic era where analog and digital intertwine in a relentless dance.
Dancing on ruins, embracing sonic violence, channeling rage into razor-sharp beats—that’s what Beau Discours is about. A record that seeks not clarity, but impact—between synthetic coldness and dancefloor fever.
