ODXC Drops New EP In the Dungeon: Chapter Two Alongside New Single “R T R Freestyle”
“Completely unexpected yet perfectly executed” — GRM Daily
“ODXC’s production remains impressive” — Link Up TV
Fast-rising producer ODXC has returned with his brand-new EP, In the Dungeon: Chapter Two, a six-track collection that incorporates the captivating fusion of drill, hip-hop, grime and R&B that the producer from Tottenham, north London, has become known for. The project also features previous singles “Margins” and “Don’t Reason”. Released last year, the pair of tracks went on to become his most streamed to date and marked him out as an artist to watch out for in 2022.
In the Dungeon: Chapter Two follows up last year’s In the Dungeon: Chapter One. Chapter Two is on track to be even bigger and sees the talented producer once again shine a light on future stars and collaborate with a host of different artists and vocalists from around the UK. And when paired with ODXC’s dynamic and versatile genre-spanning productions, it makes for a fascinating listen from start to finish.
Speaking further on the project, ODXC says, “As a producer, networking is very important to me and during the lockdown this became more apparent. I wanted to create an inclusive platform for all types of artists and genres, shining a light on artists who wouldn’t get the opportunity especially during the lockdown, which was hard for many people. I never like to pigeonhole myself, so the second chapter has a variety of sounds and genres like R&B, grime, rap and drill.”
The project is led by new grime single “R T R Freestyle”, which features north London MC Ben DSP. Elaborating further, ODXC says, “I have always had a love for grime, and I’ve wanted to work with Ben DSP for a while. Ben has been on my radar since I noticed him shelling down shows throughout 2020. This is our first release and not the last. We have great chemistry in the studio, so we will definitely cook up more tracks in the future.” Ben added, “Whenever I hear a grime or grime-inspired beat, it brings playful and fun bars out of me and this was no different. OD’s got good energy, so we just fed off each other really. First of many together I’m sure.”
“R T R Freestyle” and the rest of In the Dungeon: Chapter Two are available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://lnk.to/IntheDungeonChapterTwo.
Paulino is preparing to release what promises to be one of the most heartfelt and spellbinding Americana songs of the year — “A Reason to Stay.” Steeped in sincerity, emotion, and poetic reflection, the track feels less like a song and more like a conversation between the heart and the horizon — a timeless story told through melody, truth, and the ache of love that lingers.
With his signature blend of folk authenticity and cinematic soul, Paulino paints with sound — acoustic guitars glowing like embers, a voice weathered yet warm, and lyrics that move through the air like fireflies on a dusky Southern evening. “A Reason to Stay” feels as though it was born in the space between longing and hope, where every note carries a whisper of memory and every word a reason not to let go.
Paulino’s music has always captured the beauty in stillness — the quiet moments between joy and sorrow where life reveals its most fragile truths. This new release expands that emotional palette, balancing a raw intimacy with the kind of wide-open atmosphere that defines Americana at its most powerful. It’s music for the road, for the soul, and for the quiet hours when you’re searching for yourself in the echoes of another’s goodbye.
As the first notes of “A Reason to Stay” unfold, listeners are pulled into Paulino’s world — a place where heartbreak finds healing, and every chord reminds us that even when the road ahead is uncertain, the journey itself is what gives us a reason to stay.
A release date announcement is expected soon, but one thing is already clear: Paulino’s “A Reason to Stay” is destined to leave a lasting mark — a song that doesn’t just play, it lingers.
