WHAT'S NEW WITH OCM? (09/18/05)

 

  • The new ocm cd ''sunshine flower'' will be out soon, a mix of sunshine jangle pop, space rock and synthpop explorations of sound and texture.


  • Kevin Coral [of The Witch Hazel Sound] will be working his mellotronic magic and using his orchestral pop expertise on some songs we're working on together, hopefully they will see the light of day very soon as well.

  • twilight furniture/north of january will release the cynthetic ceiling cd called ''synthetic sailing'' on september 10 2003. cynthetic ceiling is all synthesizers and vocals, no guitars, hence the name [also suggested to be used by lawrence on the inner sleeve of the go kart mozart cd!] is cynthetic ceiling really just ocm in disguise? sure is, but a few friends pop in here and there.


  • also twilight furniture/north of january will release the new orange cake mix cd ''sunshine flower'' in early 2004.probably like january or february or...maybe a little later. or earlier. still gotta figure out the cover art and all that. 20 songs = 45 minutes of early primal scream/the springfields/ byrds inspired 12 string electric jangle pop songs/ cluster and heldon inspired space rock/cinematic instrumentals/loungecore/ quiet cerebral love songs with a dash of drum and bass thrown in the mix/etcetcetc. probably the most versatile and most varied release coming from the orange cake mix song factory.


  • we here at twilight furniture [me and ritsuko and yuki, koosas and mikan our three cats] are looking for short instrumental songs 2 or 3 or no longer than 5 minutes long[just in case we get too many long songs...]. anyway...send to either the north of january address or me:
    JIMMY RAO
    77 GOODWIN STREET
    BRISTOL, CT 06010



  • Also look for in the future 2004 on twilight furniture/north of january:


  • an all instrumental comp. ''my illusion your confusion'' [veryveryveryvery slowly coming together...flowchart/junkrags/zenith 33...thats all so far!!! so hurry up and send your songs in.]


  • ''the boats are floating back behind the weeds'' by zenith 33 [yet another disguise of ocm...all instrumental...all spacerock/spacepop and music for imaginary films...no vocals...just guitars,groovebox,korg and such. the first truly ALL INSTRUMENTAL jimmy rao endeavor ever to hit the face of our fragile yet warm and cozy planet earth...yeah.]


  • ''let's get high all over again'' by junkrags [friends of jimmy doin a twisted take of hip hop, no rappin, just instrumental w/ voice samples...think lemon jelly meet spacemen or sonic on a lazy crazy sunset ride to the far side of the universe]
