Hi everyone and welcome. If you like what you hear on this page, then please leave some comments. THANK YOU :)

“Island Life” is the fantastic new album from The Ox (released 18 May 2009).

This is the second offering from the UK based songwriter and producer whose first album ‘Distant Shores’ was met with great reception on both sides of the Atlantic ocean.

“Island Life” follows on from The Ox’s first album offering a beautiful mix of chill out and dance orientated tracks combined with the real instrumentation performances that have set him apart from the other artists of the same genre.

As can probably be guessed from its title, the inspiration for the album has come from his travels and experienced in his native UK. There is a nice mix of different aesthetics to each of the 11 tracks that cart you off into the various soundscapes that The Ox weaves out for his listeners.

‘‘Distant Shores’ is the Ox's debut album (released 28 October 2008). This electronic, down-tempo album is definitely one for chilling out to. The beautiful guitar melodies alongside the timeless strings and electronic layers, instil peace and a sense of nonchalance that ease your worries and calm even the busiest of the minds.

The man behind it all is Paul Hogg, a musician with many talents. He was given the nickname Ox at college because of his large frame and stature and it has stuck ever since. His versatility as a musician is clearly demonstrated in ‘Distant Shores’ as he played all instruments on the album himself, as well as executing the recording, production and mastering. Heavily influenced by the likes of Moby, Craig Armstrong, Groove Armada and Chic, he always aims to evoke passion and emotion in the listener.

As a producer, remixer and musician, Paul is also working on several other projects as well as The Ox, and spanning many different music genres.

Hi My Friend How R U?
I Hope Everything Were Fine

Here Is A Poem That I Wrote And I Want 2
Share With U...

Tell Me If U Like It And Have A Nice Day....



SECRET WORLD

Alone in the dark
Where u are?
I can't feel u
I can't hear u

Why?
We are on
Different places
At the same time
I want to be
With u
In the same place
At the same time

Alone in the dark
I hear my name
From far away
A beautiful voice
From a beautiful Lady
Step by step
I’m getting closer
2 cold 4 been real

High Wycombe
Buckinghamshire
The front door is open
She let me in
She’s in front of me
Now we are
In the same place
At the same time

Grab my hand
Let’s find home
Maybe is up in the sky
A golden compass reflect the sun
Maybe we r in the right way
Grab my hand
Kiss my heart
Take me into another world
Far away from this chaos
Take me into a beautiful world
A secret World
Where always is sunrise
Two full moons
A beautiful World
That nature design
Just for u and me

-L.V.H.-
