This week on Audio Groover, we’re strapping on our helmets and diving into a track that effortlessly defies categorization: ‘Essence’ by Oliver Tree featuring Super Computer.
While it has the DNA of a straight-up House/Dance banger—complete with a driving 4/4 rhythm and synth-heavy backbone—it pulls off a brilliant, multi-genre heist. The chorus is pure, sticky Pop earworm, while the overall quirky, slightly melancholic tone and Oliver Tree’s signature delivery give it an Indie edge. It’s a track that feels equally at home on a festival main stage or on an obscure internet playlist.
The collaboration itself is delightfully cheeky. Super Computer, the robotic electronic duo, lend their Daft Punk-esque flair to the production, contrasting brilliantly with Oliver Tree’s distinct, often ironic, vocal persona. It’s this self-aware, genre-hopping ambition that makes the track feel incredibly fresh.
‘Essence’ is a testament to clever production: the kind of song that ticks all the boxes for a solid dance floor filler while remaining catchy enough for endless repeats. It’s the perfect, inventive addition to any playlist that needs a shot of high-energy, high-IQ Groover fuel.
