Off The Grid (LP)

Off The Grid is an album of dark and light, as conveyed through the singles - the raw 'Dopamine' (featuring Sydney electro-soulster Thief), the neo-breaks anthem 'Friend Like You' (with '60s soul great Lee Fields); and the nostalgically folk 'Moments' (Irish singer/songwriter Gavin James). It explores themes of resolution, resilience and self-empowerment.

In Off The Grid, Bliss n Eso have created their most fearless and, ultimately, transformative record - preparing more material than previous albums and digging deeper. The dramatic intro, and title-track, 'Off The Grid' - a chopped 'n' screwed spaghetti western banger - seemingly alludes to Bliss n Eso's absence. In fact, the group are challenging listeners - and themselves - to question the way they're programmed socially. Bliss n Eso have expanded their classic hip-hop palette into trap, soul, reggae, blues, funk and rock. Off The Grid will have heads noddin' - and spirits soarin'.
