When Electric Light Orchestra released their first album, an executive at the US branch of their record company asked one of his minions to ring up the UK branch to ask them what it was called. The executive didn't get a reply to his telephone call, so he left a message on the desk of his boss saying "No answer." Hence and so.
I have a signed copy of this on CD, have listened countless times, and I continue to be amazed at every aspect of this masterpiece. It's perfection on so many levels. I'm always hunting for new music, and sometimes I kid myself by suggesting that perhaps Owane is not the GOAT...... lol 🤘
I relistened to this album after about a month of not hearing it at all, and my mood was legitimately ACTUALLY improved. what is this magic, and why is this music so amazing
The third point to complete the "internet guitarists doing fancy progressive music" triangle, with Plini, David Maxim Micic and now you ! Really cool music, lots of melodies, dynamics variations, ambiances, and not so guitar oriented (which is a very very good thing) ! Insta-buy
I am HUGELY digging this style. the heavy inclusion of the piano and xylophone, and giving this an overall jazz like feel. reminds me of Sithu Aye's "Set Course For Andromeda" with much more jazz. this is like 60/40 where his is like 75/25. Loving this :D
I really enjoy how creatively you blend genres together, and on top of it all the interesting musical textures you use without sounding unclear. If I lived in your region of the world, I would definitely try to audition for your band !
Owane's music tracks have brought my family together. We listen to Owane together. Honestly, the instrumentals remind of RUSH! Thanks Owane! Your music is dope like Pineapple Express. Thanks for not giving us a Snicklefritz track.
I LOVE how this opens with a GREAT phrase that keeps one guessing and off-balance , then mellows into breathing space to let the intro settle........ then kicks back in with some edge and spine-tingling progressions toward a recapitulation and modulation of the main theme then, as if it hasn't been beautiful enough, it kicks even higher with octave melodies and then a gorgeous mist-shrouded river ride into the rhythmic rapids and splashing poly-colored immersions and way cool groove-shift that seems like a 6/8 but instantly morphs into a transformer-bot and second theme recapitulation and just as that takes wing the ride suddenly but gently slows to a quasi-techno pool of reverberating lushness, no, off again into hyper-rhythmic variations and glitchy solo ADD the violin...here' comes another theme that sounds like a closer but who knows...always kept guessing, here come more waves of thematic material, the river goes and goes to the sea....oh wait, I forgot this was an LP, I thought I was describing one song, oh well. It all goes together so perfectly. Swim and breathe, let brain receive.
Cartoon Theory I honestly can't believe how much I love this album. I'm on my 5th listen and it just gets better with each listen. Don't even get me started on the end of multivitamin juice pt. 1 haha.
So as a self proclaimed "good music connoisseur" and musician I gotta confess this album might be my all time favorite. Its unlike anything else.. So many different fully developed ideas from such opposite ends of the spectrum are condensed into such genuinely creative pieces of art.. I might be pushing it a lil bit but i feel you're in a league all your own man, the stuff is powerful.. Can't wait for the new stuff:)
got off work at 230 this morning, been straight bumming over a previous lady friend, then got kinda bummed that I'm just now showing up to the owane party, but 4 tracks in and I'm just fucking happy I made it to this party period and fucking all is well now at 430am. fucking medicinal jams here dude!
Haven’t heard anything like this all together. Pieces but nothing that has been mixed together effortlessly. Or it seems such. I knight you, Sir Composition! Continue the odyssey, of the road less traveled!
Well machined and no less organic for the precision. Makes me feel like the shackles of the hologram are slipping away; all is willingly let go that has convinced me Im not floating in unfathomable surety and resolve. The universe is vibing with you bro! We love you! I'm sharing the album everywhere!
Was just turned onto this band and they’ve already become one of my favorites, a band I can’t stop listening to and has been a regular part of my listening rotation. Thanks Owane!! My only criticism is that it should be 15 minutes longer😋🤘. The groove in the Summer Jam that starts at 10:32 is so hot, I could listen to them jam on it for at least 15 more minutes. Not a real criticism obviously because it’s so amazing, but that groove is just so tight, I was sad to hear it end so quickly.
Congrats pushing through and getting everything wrapped up! It's WAY worth the wait. This made my morning; thank you for all you and your musician friends brought to the table! An inspiring, organic, playful piece of work front to back!
Multi genre album .... Loved it absolutely ... Guitar licks beautifully worked out . And those Synth emos in quitting the gym ?? No words for them. .. Defenestration with its vocals to sweep you off ..
Everything Owane creates releases endorphins and bright balloons in the general area of my heart. Beautiful compositions, spectacular musicianship, superb and wonderfully tasteful lead guitar. Incredible. This music resides in my subconscious now I've listened so much. SO GOOD.
This is not progressive rock, or jazz, or metal, this is progressive fusion jazz. The best elements from progressive metal, math core along with the awesomeness of jazz.
finally after so many years (my last once in a lifetime track was "Im freaking out" by the dixie dregs) owane comes around and takes it to the next level. Congrats and deepest respect. Worldclass!!
I'm so glad I stumbled upon this amazing album! I was hooked in the first 10 seconds, can't stop humming the wonderful melodies now. Thank you!!!! Time to share with everyone 😀
It's been a week since I found out you have put out a new EP. At one point I used to listen to Greatest Hits all the time. Now that I discovered this, it's gotten me to grab my guitar from its stand and practice like I haven't been practicing for many years. It's the single reason that I once again feel pure joy for just playing the instrument - and it's been missing for sooo long. So inspiring. I don't know if I can explain it, really, but in your music everything's so satisfyingly in place like in no other band's or artist's music. Sincerely grateful for every song you have uploaded here for us to wonder. 6/5
This intro to Rekt just felt sooo good. It's even cooler that you, the guys from Plini, Helix Nebula, Modern Day Babylon all seem to be friends. You guys are the greatest
Some really nice harmony and guitar playing!! Really dig this style, are you going to do some shows with this music?, and do you have a band for this stuff?? Would love to see this music live👍
owane, im a huge fan!! bought your tab bundle and im absolutley loving it! best tabs by anyone ive seen, i always get dissapointed with other tab books as they have wrong fingering and positions and it frustrates the hell outta me because it makes it harder to play. if you could take the time to release a tabbook for all your albums I will buy 100 copies ,,, thanks also i love you owane, thanks for all you do, you are a musical genius and It will not go unnoticed , i have heard people like Rick Graham have mentioned you as one of his favourite players, and you're surely one of mine , cheers , taylor
So refreshing ! I absolutely love the beginning of Fashion. It's like Mathias Eick was arranging Pyramid Song by Radiohead but didn't play the trumpet but the guitar
Im in love with multivitamin juice! The ultimate happiness of my year is the song maded using the sound of the "saturday Jam 4#".Thanks for the awesome work! #Brazilianfans
absolutely incredible! awe inspiring beautiful! and love how some of it is so graceful but clumsy at the same time with all that crazy syncopation. truly a masterpiece!
Very few guitarists have your sense of rhythm and harmony. Keep drinking that multivitamin fruit drink or whatever you're doing because it's working.
"So, what are you gonna name the album?"
Owane: "Dunno"
This is exactly how it went down man, like 10 hours before release
Yeah whatever
@@Owane 😂 nice man I'm glad our chosen spirit animal thinks the same way

Proud of ya bud. Still listening to this after weeks of mixing it hahah ❤
Hey Simon ! Is that a D-Verb on the snare ? :)
Nope! I use logic. Can't remember but it's probably Valhalla Vintage or something similar!
Gee thanks a lot, all my other music sounds so flat now xD
srsly tho...
Great work man!
Simon Grove yeah kudos !
Owane, Plini, David Maxim Micic, Sean Ashe - There's hope for the future folks.
databloom70 i have a another one jakub zytecki ;)
Nickels thank u was about to mention Jakub lol
@@nickels9754 EXACTLY! Jakub Zytecki is an artist of the highest order!
Thrailkill, as well.
Sithu Aye!!!
Mom: "How did you find this?"
Me: "You don't find Owane. Owane finds you."
S'how it happened to me...

Absolutely killing it mate

00:23:24 Sithu, no wonder you like this album! :P
Discovered this masterpiece 6 years ago, hours of listening, still impressed...
Timeless record, forsure!
I came here to say this. Truly masterful 🤘
Daily baby!
Simp 😁
@@hansdumbf7608 Your Mom! :D
Randomly stumbled upon this on Bandcamp, great work!
Chillhop Music why not play some of owanes music??
^^^
pleaseeeee play some of owane's stuff, if he's cool with it of it ofc. It could really bring his music to a wider audience.
This is insanely freaking good.
Camila Milla y tu ??? Tienes que puro sacar un ep :D !!

Here are my personal favourite highlights!
00:00 - 30:30
I relistened to this album after about a month of not hearing it at all, and my mood was legitimately ACTUALLY improved. what is this magic, and why is this music so amazing
Whenever I want to get really pumped up, I start playing "Fashion" in my car super loud...
and then I get pumped up.
More play Through video's!!!💗💗💗💗
There will be soon! :D
2 years later, I made one to honour the mighty Owane
that's like a Christmas gift for me , owane you are amazing.
16:05 IT'S THE LICK!!!!!
THE LEEEEEEEEEEECK WOOOOOOO, i was looking like a crazy fuk for this coment, thought anybody realized :c
SAME hahahaha
29:49 kinda sounds like it too haha
@@XadaTen Oh that's definitely the goddamn lick.
The remix of the Gym Membership outro was fucking awesome. That was always one of my favorite parts from the first EP.
Oh gosh the vocals at 19:55 are so gorgeous, I melt every time they come up
Anna Hyatt I got goosebumps right then the first time I heard this
what in the world is this?.... this is something I can't quite define. almost magical.
I cannot even begin to explain how much this album has influenced me, absolutely bonkers to think that it’ll already be 5 years old in December.
Where is this guy now?

Did anyone else spotted Shia LaBeouf at 11.44 ?
I just spotted him. JUST DO IT!!
Rui Santos dont let your memes be dreams!
how fuck u said the truth
Shia LaBTFO
Well machined and no less organic for the precision.

The universe is vibing with you bro! We love you! I'm sharing the album everywhere!
Amazed by how good your music is. Don't ever stop making music, man.
The transition from rekt to fashion is one of my favorite moments in all music ever, and this whole album is GOATed, easily
29:50 HAHA I see what you did there! Seaky putting the lick in there ;)
This album is amazing but there’s something about “fashion” that just puts a freaking smile on my face every time 😊😊
Awesome work man, you know how to play with affection! Right now I am really into this cool part at 24:32, great atmosphere and grooving like hell.
Was just turned onto this band and they’ve already become one of my favorites, a band I can’t stop listening to and has been a regular part of my listening rotation. Thanks Owane!!

Dad: what genre is this?
Me: cool music
LOVE your music dude, im glad to see more and artists (few) are trying to make BEAUTIFUL music instead of just shredding the guitar.
Dude you are truly amazing. Thank you for blessing us with this. I hope you don't ever stop making music for the public ears.
omg yes more awesome music. Sharing this everywhere mate
Multi genre album .... Loved it absolutely ... Guitar licks beautifully worked out . And those Synth emos in quitting the gym ?? No words for them. .. Defenestration with its vocals to sweep you off ..
I've not listen to it yet and it's already one of my favorites! Hope one day I can have your collaboration in one of my songs.
I just finished taking this off repeat.
but then I cried cause I missed it so much.
so I immediately put it back on. this is so lovely.❤💯🚀🌙
And I was already wondering what to put on the 'best albums of 2016' list
Everything Owane creates releases endorphins and bright balloons in the general area of my heart. Beautiful compositions, spectacular musicianship, superb and wonderfully tasteful lead guitar. Incredible. This music resides in my subconscious now I've listened so much. SO GOOD.

Loved this. Beautiful playing and arrangements!
finally after so many years (my last once in a lifetime track was "Im freaking out" by the dixie dregs) owane comes around and takes it to the next level. Congrats and deepest respect. Worldclass!!
Yeeeeah I'm Freaking Out was one song that at a time i was listening on repeat too
@@Igorguitarful and i never figured out to play the main theme on guitar. Steve is such a gIant
@@studentsmusic hey man, if you want, i'm glad if i can be of some help if you want me to make tabs for you to the main theme
Last week I discovered Owane, Plini and Sithu. I am blown away. My neighbours will not recover. Whats next week going to be like !!
Those melodies, and it's all so damn GROOVY!
I'm so glad I stumbled upon this amazing album! I was hooked in the first 10 seconds, can't stop humming the wonderful melodies now. Thank you!!!! Time to share with everyone 😀

Some really nice harmony and guitar playing!! Really dig this style, are you going to do some shows with this music?, and do you have a band for this stuff?? Would love to see this music live👍
Thank you! I hope to gather a band and do shows in the future :)
