Gallegos, first name Oliver, deals in feelings rather than genres. The productions on his debut effort for RS INTL channel a ’90s rave euphoria. Luscious pads swirl amidst pitched down jungle drums, celestial strings and philosophical vocal snippets that evoke ecstatic joy. It’s no mean feat to induce a feeling of elation without the means of a synthetic intervention — but Ollie seems to have cracked the code — taking listeners there with harmony, texture and rhythm alone — nothing synthetic here: this is alchemy at play. The EP — which in all honesty feels more like a mini album — is a real journey across five songs and 29 minutes. It’s about equally split between driving rhythmic compositions created with movement in mind, and pensive ambient detours that are more sonic meditations than anything else. The album reaches its most dizzying heights when these two elements come together in unison for the title track, “Memories You’ve Memorised” — a widely road-tested future classic which blends scattered Juno chords, arpeggiated church organ and 80s vocal samples to a tear-jerking crescendo. “Memories You’ve Memorised” elevates Oliver Gallegos to the top tier of modern electronic composition. There’s comparisons to be made to Primal Scream, Underworld, and even Aphex Twin, – but after all is said and done, this is the coming of age of a future pioneer.
