Taken off the recently released debut album โNo Villageโ, โThe Great Oratorโ stuck out to me with itโs purity. Kuriโs angelic vocals hint how intense feelings of danger, adventure and even a newfound identity can really be. Scott Currie of Kuri began writing under the name in 2017. With influences such as Radiohead and Robert Glasper, he created his own distinctive sound. Best described as avant-folk, the mysterious number is arranged with clarity but mostly honesty.ย
With the subject of the track being about the feeling of hope that you’ve discovered something that no one else knows, itโs filled with pride and surprisingly, a sense of motivation throughout. Itโs the type of track that youโd hear on sport adverts or a motivational video segment in a movie. Uplifted with an exceptional piano melody, the arrangement is slightly bare but filled with complexity talents. Gripping you in from the get go, if youโre left wanting more, check out the full album below.
