Orange Orange explores the tactile, everchanging genre of alternative-indie, dabbling vivaciously through post-punk and elements of electronica to create soundscapes and stories that last.
The independent project of Ryan Basile, Orange Orange has independently released two EPs and two LPs to carve out his own niche in Melbourne. Revered for his witty and considered lyricism, Ryan boundlessly explores ideas and elements of music that carry audiences through lush soundscapes and intricate thought.
The release of the first album Shame in 2019 proved to be brash yet bold – as a young Ryan confidently declared himself to the community as an exciting and upcoming producer, composer and songwriter. Moving through vignettes of emotions proved to be potent, captured through the haunting love story described in There We Go (ft. Ruby-Sofia), the optimistic acquiesce of Dermo-Creme (ft. GUS), and the live-changing epiphany in The Bigger Picture.

A strong independent release of 2023 – Orange Orange’s latest album The Sun Isn't Gone cemented him as one of the most creative up-and-coming artists in Australia – featuring for Album of the Week on SYN Melbourne. Written and recorded in his own bedroom throughout Victoria's everlasting lockdown period, The Sun Isn't Gone finds Orange Orange in true moments of enlightenment in a climate of vitriol and uncertainty; where his potent, uncompromising lyrics are a guiding light.
Between Granny Lands's feelings of hopelessness towards state corruption, Say What You Feel's plea for authenticity and Future Role's concern and resolve for doing good in the world – Ryan's concern for the state of the world is only matched by his drive to rectify and improve himself and the lives of others.
Ryan is currently working on LP3.
