Sample, cut, manipulate, re-sample, re-cut, assemble, mix, master, and repeat. For several years Portland Oregon's OvA has been making burgers from popular music's sacred cows. First with their critically acclaimed dissection of ELP's epically terrible album Tarkus, aptly titled 'My Other Carmadillo Is A Tarkus' and now with their soon to be released tribute to the music of Gary Numan. Along the way they've employed plunderphonics, sampling, intense audio editing, epic synthesizer phrasing, time shifting, and a healthy dose of copyright infringement to bring you the finest in smart-ass musical snobbery.
this shit is blowin my mind. it's been crankin througout the whole house for the last 30min or so. sun pourin through the windows. it's getting a little intense.
i think i'm gonna have to check out the original ELP version to put it into historical context, but after reading the liner notes i'm not sure i want to...
this is rad though. thnks for the discs. it was great to see you and rap out and all that too. i look forward to more. i think we'll be back again soon. we'll have to hang and talk oscillators.
