The Miami-based label Magician On Duty kicks off 2025 with Shadows of the Past, the latest release by Odagled, set to debut on January 17, 2025. This four-track EP showcases a deeply introspective approach, reflecting Odagled’s journey through solitude, emotional growth, and rediscovered freedom.
The opening track, Walking Alone, introduces listeners to a poignant world crafted with delicate piano lines, haunting vocals, and resonant tones from the Roland 101. The textured percussions enhance the track’s emotional weight, making it a perfect balance of melancholy and resilience.
The second track, Shadows of the Past, is a collaborative masterpiece with Serbian artist Aiyu. Combining pop and indie influences with lush synth crescendos and dynamic basslines, the song captures the complexity of closure and the courage to embrace new beginnings.
Closing the EP is Wheels & Waves, a vibrant piece inspired by Odagled’s surf-skating adventures in Málaga. The Moog bassline and nostalgic 80s-inspired synths create a thrilling and energetic ride, encapsulating the joy of movement and exploration.
This EP reflects Odagled’s evolution and stands as a must-listen for fans of progressive house and melodic storytelling.
