Ogster & ALEX BOYCHUK – “Fall”
Ogster & Alex Boychuk’s new single Fall is a sublime slice of atmospheric indie-electronica that hits like a soft-focus memory of the future, an elegant stroll through a dreamscape that could’ve been lifted from Blade Runner if it had been experienced at a Manchester warehouse party in the early '90s, surrounded by the ethereal sounds of bands like Lush and Slowdive. It’s drenched in emotion, yet cool to the touch, like the kind of track you’d play while wandering alone under neon lights in a rain-soaked city you’ve never been to before.
Right from the first few bars, Fall sets its tone with lush, sweeping synths that feel cinematic in scale. They are warm and nostalgic but modern in execution, reminiscent of vintage analog textures yet polished for today's sonic landscape. Layered over these are guitars that shimmer with that unmistakable Johnny Marr magic, jangly, melodic, and just a bit melancholic. They don’t dominate; they drift and dance in the background, adding a human heartbeat to the synthetic sprawl.
Adding to the track’s atmospheric depth is the subtle yet distinctive sonic fingerprint of Ukrainian composer and guitarist Alex Boychuk from Kiev, who collaborated with Ogster on the guitar textures. Boychuk’s ability to infuse emotion into every note brings a quietly cinematic elegance to the production, further blurring the line between digital and organic.
The real engine of this indiescape, though, is the groove. The bassline is subtle but flawless, rich, round, and impossibly smooth, driving the track forward with a laid-back confidence. Coupled with crisp percussion that never overplays its part, the rhythm section anchors Fall with a pulse that’s impossible not to get lost in. It’s the kind of track that makes time feel elastic.
There’s something incredibly visual about Ogster’s production. Every element is placed with care, creating a world that feels both intimate and expansive. It’s the sound of late-night thoughts and early-morning revelations, of walking home when the streets are empty but your mind is full. Emotionally resonant without ever veering into sentimentality, Fall hits that sweet spot between introspection and euphoria.
Ogster, hailing from Sweden, shows an impressive command of mood and melody, with a sound that feels both lovingly retro and refreshingly current. He’s clearly a producer to watch, not just for his technical skill but for the emotional weight he’s able to pack into a single track.
We’ve added Fall to our Indie Playlist on Spotify, and it’s already a standout. If you're into artists who blur the lines between indie rock, dream pop, and electronic music, think M83, Washed Out, or The Radio Dept., then this is a track that needs to be on your radar.
Don’t sleep on Ogster. With Fall, he’s not just making music, he’s painting scenes for your imagination.
