Biography
Berlin-based duo OY first came to prominence when singer-musician Joy Frempong joined forces with producer-musician Melodydreamer to form what is now known as a symbiotic avant-pop and genre-bending body of sound. Their symphonic odyssey expanded to new horizons in 2014, releasing their first collaborative album, “No Problem Saloon” in which they masterfully crafted a rich tapestry of African landscapes and pearls of wisdom. By then signed under the Belgian cult label Crammed Discs, the duo embarks on an outer space exode with “Space Diaspora” in 2016, a critically acclaimed afrofuturistic concept album where retro and modern sounds dance in harmony. Through a transnational prism, OY’s music boldly blurs the lines and sinks the notion of borders into blissful oblivion. Notorious for their vibrant scenic presence, every performance captures the hearts of festival-goers and music lovers with their wondrous storytelling and somersaulting rhythms, stretching the boundaries of music into uncharted realms. Their unique musical imprint is at the crossroads of many cultures and voices, which has led to 300+ shows in more than 20 countries.
