Intro

Opolopo creates a world where the 1980s never ended, but the technology kept evolving. It is a lush, high-fidelity landscape of 'Superconductor' funk, where every synth line feels like it was dipped in chrome and every drum hit has a precise, infectious snap. The music is unashamedly joyful, leaning into the sophisticated side of disco and soul without ever losing its grit.

What sets this sound apart is the incredible technical proficiency of Peter Major. He bridges the gap between the complex harmonic language of jazz fusion and the raw, rhythmic urgency of broken beat. You will hear echoes of Herbie Hancock's electronic era filtered through a modern Scandinavian lens, resulting in tracks that are as intellectually stimulating for music nerds as they are irresistible for casual dancers.

Start with 'Superconductor' to hear the peak of his electro-funk powers, or dive into 'Beyond Jipangu' for a more eclectic, jazzy journey. If you are looking for music that feels like a celebration of sound itself, this is your destination.
