Oli XL is one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary club music, impossible to pin down to a single genre because he works by instinct rather than convention. The Swedish producer, signed to Warp Records, started with extreme sample-based experiments on his own label W-I and has since evolved through milestones like Rogue Intruder, Soul Enhancer, named one of the year’s best by Fader and highlighted by FACT as an artist to watch, up to his latest Warp release, Lick The Lens. His music blends the crystalline textures of ’90s IDM, loose slow-club beats, Hyperpop-style synthetic vocals, and distorted emotional traces, creating a private language that becomes public in the club. On December 26, Antigen brings him to Heim for a night that’s less about being “understood” and more about being invited into a listening journey.
