Rust Riffs is the soul’s first outcry from Ondelic — a deep dive into contemporary blues where heavy riffs and driving beats meet raw street-born emotion. This is blues with electric tension: gritty, modern, and unapologetic.

Through distorted guitar lines and slow-burning grooves, the album bridges the sorrow of Delta tradition with the urgency of the present day. Each track bears the weight of rust, yet shines with the fire of someone still burning inside.

This isn’t revival. It’s reinvention. With Rust Riffs, Ondelic delivers a blues charged with raw power — for those who face the storm with eyes open and a guitar in hand.

Shadows on the Road

Burden Deep

Blues as a road, an exile, and redemption

With his second album, Ramble Soul, Ondelic dives even deeper into the dust-covered corners of the soul. Released in April 2025, the record cements the artist’s sonic identity: a roadside blues sound, dark and emotional, rooted in alternative folk with ghostly echoes from the American South.

The album’s eight tracks form a kind of diary of a drifter carrying pain in his pocket and ghosts in the passenger seat. With raw production and weighty lyrics, Ondelic turns silence and space into language — as in “Dust and Tears Highway,” which opens the record like a wandering lament, or “The Crows Whisper,” closing the cycle with an almost ritualistic hush.

Ramble Soul is an album of passage. It deals with escape, collapse, and renewal with the ease of someone who's walked those roads more than once. Stripped-down arrangements and a gravel-toned voice give the work an intimate weight — as if each song were sung to a mirror, or to the bottom of an empty glass.

More than a follow-up, this second record is an emotional and aesthetic refinement, where Ondelic finds clarity precisely in the shadows. It's an album to play while driving with no destination — or while lying still, staring at the ceiling, as the world outside spins in silence.
