The London producer pushes past comfort zones to deliver his most forward-thinking project yet
London-based producer Big O returns with his most ambitious work to date — When It’s Not Said, But Done, a deeply introspective and genre-blurring album out September 26, 2025. Entirely self-produced, the record finds Big O embracing evolution through action, moving beyond words and expectations to let the music speak entirely for itself.
Drawing inspiration from the creative mastery of Madlib, Four Tet, J Dilla, and Kiefer, Big O constructs an immersive sonic landscape that bridges jazz-laced hip-hop, textured Afrobeats, and fluid R&B rhythms. The standout track “Relaxing My Emotions” captures the essence of this fusion — calm yet dynamic, experimental yet grounded — showcasing his ability to blend warmth, groove, and innovation into a seamless flow.
For Big O, this album marks a personal and artistic turning point. “This project represents a new chapter for me — a sonic journey of evolution made not through promises or proclamations, but through action,” he shares. “It’s about taking creative risks without waiting for permission, and trusting the process enough to let the music speak for itself.”
Recorded in his London home studio, When It’s Not Said, But Done stands as a meditation on authenticity and perseverance. Each track unfolds with intentional restraint and rhythmic sophistication, capturing a producer unafraid to experiment while remaining true to his own pulse.
Fans will get the chance to experience Big O’s new sound live when he performs at Four Quarters, London, on October 11th as part of Audio Arcade — an event set to showcase the same raw energy and forward-thinking creativity that defines this release.
Big O’s latest chapter is not about declarations — it’s about delivery. When It’s Not Said, But Done is proof that the truest artistic statements don’t need to be spoken; they just need to be made.
