Dance Music for the Static Generation

About Me

these songs are the work of Brian " Scrapper "Harris-all instruments,noises and mistakes -the sound of Eastcote-OSAKA MUSIC CONCERN-the label.The Legend:-"music for people with two ears"OSMUCON is an independent music label based in West London offering M.P.3s of avant-rock bands " if it's out there-it's in here"HISTORY-OSMUCON was started by twin brothers Dorian and Brian in an attempt to revitalise 21st century avant-rock music . Bands were invited to send their work especially that which was rejected by the more commercial labels (the weirder and more avant-garde the better).OSMUCON holds to the basic tenets of Heuremics ;a way of living built on drama, art, music and skateboarding plus a social conscience within a spiritual framework. -OSMUCONCOSONG-"The notes go in - the music comes out - that's what OSAKA MUSIC CONCERN is all about"(OSAKA MUSIC CONCERN COMPANY SONG)-Band Roster -The Futiles- From the remnants of "Doctor Futillo's Amazing Technicolor Dream Monkey", a rehearsal only band, come these West London proto-punks. Their style is "Raw and Loud" as is the name of their forthcoming CD. (They are old enough to know better).Finlandiac- A Scandinadian collective of anarco-syndicalists who sent us their (mostly) unlistenable CD last year. This track “Shrik-Sneg “ is the most bearable. Its title means "The Shrieking Snake" in the indo-european root language .The Heuremics- Some see this band as merely a group of Hertfordshire girls who play Dif Juz tributes. This is far from the truth- listen well.Fire Ampliance- Polish Christian heavy avant-rock anybody? Very catchy, Very humble, Very fast.Scrapper- Based around the twisted imaginings of Brian, Dorian's twin brother, Scrapper have caused consternation for both Guitarist magazine and the N.M.E. - ( I wonder why?). Contains ex-members of Nasty Habbits.-OSMUCON 1: THE OSAKA MUSIC CONCERN SAMPLER.-1. "Have you forgotten yet?"
