Eight In The Room Bought & Soul'd

Описание: Dorian Duvall’s music has always thrived in flux, evolving with each new environment. As Onuinu, he emerged from Portland with a sound that blurred the lines between dreamy synth pop, warped funk, and dancefloor abstraction. Their debut LP, Mirror Gazer, fused house, ambient, and hip-hop sensibilities into something hypnotic yet propulsive.

That vision shifted dramatically with Ordeal Erasure, released under the moniker Mirror Gazer in 2020. The album marked a departure from the vibrant synth-pop of Onuinu, embracing a darker, more introspective tone that blended electronic textures with rock influences. Duvall leaned into moodier, more atmospheric compositions, pushing his sound toward rawer, more experimental territory. This evolution reflected a broader creative restlessness, a drive to break form, rebuild, and progress.

New York sharpened those instincts, as Duvall immersed themselves in the energy of the underground dance scene. The city’s clubs became a new kind of education, pushing their sound toward grittier, more percussive textures and high-pressure rhythms. Now, after relocating to Mexico, he steps into his next chapter: 8ITR (Eight In The Room). Rooted in electronic, house, breakbeat, bass, and UK garage, 8ITR distills a decade of reinvention into something urgent, physical, and deeply immersive.

This summer, 8ITR debuts with a seven-track EP on Brooklyn’s Toucan Sounds, channeling past incarnations into a forward-facing, club-ready release. For Duvall, reinvention has never been about erasing the past, it’s about distilling what matters. And with 8ITR, the vision is clearer than ever.

8ITR’s debut EP on Toucan Sounds is a high-energy fusion of House, Breakbeat, Bass, and UK Garage, crafted for late-night drives and dance floor awakenings. Across seven tracks—Viva, Lovely, Imagine, Panda, Bought & Soul’d, Up & Up, and Fun—8ITR weaves raw emotion with forward-thinking production, delivering a sonic journey of movement, nostalgia, and reinvention. Rooted in underground club culture, this release marks the next evolution of Dorian Duvall’s sound.
