L.A. Salami has released the deluxe version of his highly acclaimed 2022 album ‘OTTOLINE’. The South London artist has of late begun calling himself an Intergalactical Troubadour, which is a sound that can be found reflected in his last two full-length albums. This new director's cut version of OTTOLINE is a full exploration of the artist's early 2020s sound, which ranges from folk, rock and roll, neo-soul, all the way through to hip hop, but remains authentically L.A. Salami."
The 18-track offering contains tracks off the 2022 record with a further five tracks added for fans to sink their teeth into. The focus single for the album is ‘THE TALISMAN’, a character that has been prominent throughout Salami’s work since the late 2010s. The track is about becoming the truest version of yourself, and the lows you must sometimes experience in order to get there. Salami explains the character further “THE TALISMAN is is a giant version of myself that lives at the end of time and space after he has made all the right decisions and learnt all the right lessons."
