Odeal, the architect of emotion, returns with The Summer That Saved Me

Quietly, but with surgical precision, Odeal unveils The Summer That Saved Me, his fourth full-length project. An album rooted in a distinctly contemporary aesthetic, it continues to carve out a singular artistic identity shaped between Lagos, London, and Berlin. This is not music that begs for attention — it commands it, through consistency, restraint, and flawless execution.

A journey without compromise

Born in the UK, raised across Europe and Nigeria, Odeal represents a generation of artists that defy borders. His sound is deeply hybrid, merging ethereal R&B, modern afrobeats, and textural electronic influences.With four projects under his belt, he has emerged as a singular voice in the UK’s alternative scene — operating outside of commercial molds, but always anchored in lived experience.

A visual and sonic statement of rare cohesion

The Summer That Saved Me opens like a summer confession, unfolding with the discipline of cinematic storytelling. Each track is carefully sculpted — with layered vocals, filtered textures, and production that breathes, never suffocates. The balance between synthetic soundscapes and organic percussion is exacting, yet natural.

Visually, the accompanying video project elevates the entire release. Static, golden-lit shots, slow, deliberate camera work, and a color palette of soft pastels and muted blues create a moodboard that mirrors the music’s emotional clarity. This isn’t aesthetic for aesthetic’s sake — it’s an extension of the narrative.
