Methyl Orange

At school Nick Wall was the guru when it came to all things contemporary music. Now he's Methyl Orange.

Here's what Spotify has to say about the artist - ‘Methyl Orange music is a melodic mix of layered and cinematic synths and guitars, spanning a wide range of genres and styles, with the feel of a collection of ‘undiscovered’ TV and film themes. At times evoking 70s/80s vibes all wrapped up in the unique modern sound that is Methyl Orange’

‘Song for Geoff’ kicks off his first album from 2017 with a great vibe and his latest release includes some great fresh synth including ‘Sliding Doors’
