Oslo Parks Deliver New Double A-Side Single



Words: Rory Wynne

Oslo Parks have this week released their double A-Side single ‘Fiction’/ ‘Dress For That’ via X Novo Records.

Describing the effervescent ‘Fiction’, the Brighton-based duo, Rob Flynn and Ian Booth say, “Fiction is about a relationship before it's really a relationship - before you get that full connection with another person.”

Despite Oslo Parks being just a two-piece, their both being multi-instrumentalists allows them to add layers of texture, with 'Fiction' firing off on summery vibes and youthful lightheartedness; while 'Dress For That’ with a relentless drum beat throughout, floats synths below the perfect harmonies Flynn and Booth create. ‘Dress For That’ could have been plucked out of any 80s compilation CD, though it doesn't, however, sound dated: it sounds timeless.

Listen to 'Dress For That' below.

Oslo Parks play The Waiting Room, London tonight, June 9.
