Onra is a Parisian producer who has displayed growth through out his years as a producer and artist.I first came across this 2007 release entitled which mixed Chinese pop records he hadpurchased in Viet Nam and mixing these samples with 90 bpm beats. It was unlike anything else I had heard before.His latest release entitled demonstrates his love for 80's synth boogie soul.He chops of the sounds of The Gap Band & Midnight Star into these 1/2 time hypnotized beatsthat instantly make the listener head bob.

With an eclectic arsenal of samples and an ear for international sounds, Onra (born Arnaud Bernard) is a beatmaker based in Paris, France. Reminiscent of crate-diggers like Madlib and DJ Shadow, as well as fellow Sinophile countrymen Chinese Man, Onra peppers his beats with exotic sounds from Vietnam and India, giving his sound an international flair. The French producer released his debut album, Tribute, in 2006 on Bo Bun Records, then followed up the next year with the critically acclaimed Chinoiseries, which was released on both Favorite Recordings (LP) and Bo Bun (CD).

Onra returned to Chinoiseries in 2017 with the third and final volume. In 2018, Onra returned to his 'future funk' sound with the full-length Nobody Has to Know. Gregory Heaney.
