NRK Summer Signing #2 – Osborne “Ruling”


NRK Music have picked up the European rights to another essential house record for the Summer. Osborne’s “Ruling” came out on influential US label Spectral Sound earlier this year, and has been racking up some fantastic support already. An emotive piece of lush deep house,

“Ruling” is an unashamed throwback to the early halcyon days of Chicago and New York house music. A perfect slice of deepness for the warmer months….

Todd Osborn has his roots in drum ‘n’ bass, running Detroit’s first vinyl emporium dedicated to the genre, and his own Rewind label. Since 2002, Osborn has turned his hands to all manners of electronic sounds and persuasions, and most recently he has recorded a clutch of forward thinking sounds for Spectral Sound, the off-shoot label of Ghostly International, and home to electronic artists Audion AKA Matthew Dear, James Cotton and Hieroglyphic Being. Osborne’s self titled debut album is out now on Spectral, and is definitely a long player to pick up.

“Ruling” is currently getting the remix treatment from the legendary King Britt, a producer who always brings a touch of class to his mixes, and will get a full release on NRK in September 2008.
