THEODOR is no longer a hidden gem amongst sweet soul lovers.
The band’s unique psychedelic approach to this genre received international attention from vinyl influencers like Somewhere Soul, tastemaker radio stations like KEXP, and leading record stores from Tokyo to San Francisco.
Background story:
Theodor is named after a 24-year-old cat that observed the genesis of the band’s first album. The recording sessions started deep in the pandemic and captured this peaceful solitude. The outcome was their self-titled LP. The idea to form a recording project was born on a road trip to Italy. Rob (Okta Logue) and Lui (LUI HILL) were listening to tapes of contemporary soul music which became the subsequent inspiration for the project: a vision to record a moody and relaxed soundscape. The band was then rounded out by Max (Fooks Nil) and Greg (Triorität). “THEODOR” was released on the French record label Broc Recordz (2023).
Now:
After their well-received self-titled debut album, the band is back with a new LP. HOLOCENE has a contemporary sound while showcasing the four members admiration for 60’s Jazz and 70’s soul and funk recordings. The unique male falsetto and the soulful timbre of the two singers tell stories of self-reflection, thoughts of friends passed on, contemplation of the cosmos, and a lingering hint of something greater. Soulful acoustic drums meet cheerful melodic bass lines being embraced by warm and dreamy synthesizers. With their new album “HOLOCENE” the band consolidated their mellow and psychedelic style which brought it to a more refined level. Static drum machines, elastic instrumental cascades, and classic song structures with a pop music appeal give this LP a wide sonic range and scope. Each of the 10 tracks on this album evoke a cinematic vibe that activates your imagination. HOLOCENE is the perfect soundtrack for a hot and humid summer day, adding a magic dash to your twelve o’clock tea. If you love the silky synthesizer of AIR, the weird and mellow
vibes of early Mac DeMarco, or the driving grooves of hot 70’s soul and funk, you will love Theodor.
