Exclusive Premiere: Octo Champ “Lacuna” (Shapes Of Rhythm)
Octo Champ prepares the release of his second release of 2017, “Southern Uplands”.
This upfront four-track release is a selection of dance floor ready disco and house and sits boldly apart from a lot of other music within these genres. Lacuna is the EP’s funkiest cut, featuring a killer bass hook, percussion, guitar chops, claps and more vocals to carry it along.

Octo Champ has remixed Soundway‘s Flamingods and CHPLN as well as contributing to the CDR x Dimensions Sounds 2016 project. Most recently, his music was picked up by Let’s Go Swimming who released the “Not Quite There Yet” EP.
