Imagine a precisely blended concoction of tight irresistible grooves, chunk fueled bouncy beats, luscious brooding soundscapes, and a bowl of scrumptious glitch. Welcome to the musical world of Opiuo. A self confessed music addict with a light hearted approach to life and art. Opiuo is at his best whilst hiding from the world, creating fun fueled music. Influences coming from everything, from life changing experiences, to mere cups of tea. Incorporating sounds as varied as jazz, reggae, funk, rock, psychedelia, and down right chunky goodness. Originally from New Zealand, he now resides in Melbourne, Australia, where he has built an international reputation for his party fueling creations. Many of which have seen worldwide release, and some are being played by the biggest names in the business. 2009 has seen Opiuo go from strength to strength. Having played many of the major summer festivals and supported a multitude of international acts. Stand up, shake down, and get ready for a right ol stomp . . .
