The Chaos Engine

Stuck in Traffic is olliray’s first album. The story begins in 2017 with the release of BoxRox, a small electronic idea that became the spark for everything that followed. Over the next two years the music grew slowly and naturally in a small flat in South London. Most of the songs began as simple synth sketches that later opened into fuller pieces with piano, guitar and voice.

The title came from a real moment in late 2018. Olliray was waiting for his dad to arrive for lunch. His dad was stuck in traffic and the delay gave him an unexpected pocket of time. In that quiet stretch he recorded all the vocals for the title track in one take. When his dad finally arrived he played him the music and asked what he should call it. His dad smiled and gave the answer that became the name of the whole album.

Stuck in Traffic holds the feeling of that early period. Raw, instinctive and made by ear. A blend of electronic textures and intimate melodies shaped between 2017 and late 2018, and released in January 2019.

For fans of synthwave, retrowave and 80s inspired electronic music.

Love

This track was born on a quiet night, when only the steady pulse of ideas remained. I wanted to create a journey that didn’t need words — just atmospheres that wrap around you, a rhythm that walks beside you, and an emotion that grows little by little.
It’s a piece meant for drifting, for letting the mind open as everything flows gently. A progressive, luminous, and deep path, created for those who enjoy movement and those moments when music feels like it’s speaking directly to the heart.
This is Luzard: emotion in progression.  

Este track nació en una noche tranquila, cuando solo quedaba el pulso constante de las ideas. Quise crear un viaje que no necesitara palabras: solo atmósferas que te envuelven, un ritmo que te acompaña y una emoción que va creciendo poco a poco.
Es una pieza para perderse, para dejar que la mente se abra mientras todo fluye con suavidad. Un camino progresivo, luminoso y profundo, creado para quienes disfrutan del movimiento y de esos momentos en los que la música parece hablar directamente al corazón.
Esto es Luzard: emoción en progresión.
