Organi - Babylonia (2024) [Hi-Res]

Oakland-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Mike Walti, known as Organi, returns with his sophomore album "Babylonia", following the critically acclaimed 2020 debut "Parlez-vous Français?". Recorded at his analog-focused Wyldwood Studios, a creative haven for timeless, organic sound, "Babylonia" blends cinematic boom bap, dream pop, funk, and global influences into a cohesive, retro-futuristic journey.

The album features lush arrangements, contributions from Berlin singer Nana Lacrima, and Brazilian/Portuguese-infused tracks with Alix Koliha. Highlights include reinterpretations like "Old Man Willow" as "Old Man Waltz" and collaborations with Yea-Ming Chen on the haunting "Pictures of Your Face". Released via Alien Transistor, "Babylonia" solidifies Organi’s mastery of analog warmth and genre-defying exploration.
