Oppidan doesn't just build tracks; he constructs sonic architectures, meticulously layering rhythms and melodies into immersive club experiences. Emerging from the UK underground, Oppidan's sound is a potent blend of progressive house, techno, and trance, infused with a distinctly melodic sensibility. His tracks possess a rare ability to be both relentlessly driving and deeply emotive, earning him support from electronic music heavyweights like Above & Beyond and Armin van Buuren. The early seeds of his career were sown in local clubs, honing his DJ skills and gradually refining his production techniques. Early releases on labels like Enhanced Progressive quickly gained traction, showcasing his knack for crafting euphoric breakdowns and powerful drops. This culminated in appearances at renowned festivals and clubs across Europe. Oppidan's impact extends beyond the dance floor. He's a champion of sonic detail, evident in his meticulous sound design and dedication to creating tracks that resonate long after the beat fades. Collaborations with vocalists like Marijn have further amplified his reach, adding a human element to his intricate soundscapes. Currently, Oppidan continues to push boundaries with his forthcoming releases, solidifying his position as a leading force in the melodic progressive scene.
