The Oscillation - Veils 2LP
Format: 2LP
Release Date: 12th April 2011
Finally, after some delays, comes the vinyl edition of "Veils". It comes in a 2 x LP format with a hand stamped insert that includes a digital download version of the album. There are a handful of limited edition posters which will go into the first orders placed.
The LP will come with a special bonus disc featuring six previously unreleased ambient tracks whilst stocks last.
...It is almost three years since the release of The Oscillation's debut album 'Out Of Phase' for DC recordings. In those three years the band have played live all over the world to great acclaim and Demian Castellanos has clearly honed his musical vision. Whilst the debut album was dominated by stripped back grooves and motorik rhythms 'Veils' sees The Oscillation sound mature in numerous ways: song craft and introspection adding to the already rich sonic textures to create a powerful and varied new collections of songs. From the industrial pulse of 'Future Echo' to the haunted b-movie swagger of 'Fall', the disco dub fury of 'Telepathic Birdman' to the ecstatic melancholy of 'See Through You', the album features a remarkable spectrum of sonic experiences that range from beautifully crafted melodic songs to droning, no-wave chaos.

Julian Hand - Future Decay
Format: DVD
Release Date: 20th September 2010
Julian Hand is the longstanding visual collaborator of The Oscillation, through both his spectacular projections as part of the band's live shows as well as the videos he has made for "Respond In Silence", "Violations" (both found on the DC Recordings release "Out Of Phase") and more recently "Future Echo", for the All Time Low Imprint.
On this new DVD Julian has collated a large selection of his recent visual work which includes the video for The Oscillation "Future Echo", plus out-takes from the original Super8 footage shot for the video in the lunar landscape of the Denge Peninsula.
In addition to this there is a 55 minute Julian Hand 'live set' - a light show made using oils, lenses, glass clock faces and other optical ephemera that has formed part of Julian's ever changing live show for The Oscillation during the summer of 2010. This live set is designed for home viewing and so includes a new ambient soundtrack by Demian Castellanos of The Oscillation. You can view an excerpt of this section of the film here:
FUTURE DECAY (EXTRACT) from JULIAN HAND on Vimeo.
The DVD is packaged in a lavish printed handmade cardboard sleeve and also contains two original acetate prints made by Julian Hand. This DVD comes in a limited edition of 50 and is available to buy now exclusively from All Time Low and a selected record shops.
Higamos Hogamos - Sorcery
Format: CD
Release date: 19th April 2010
1. Sorcery
2. O Deo
3. Deuced
4. 5-HTP
5. Jahari's Window
6. Sorcery (version)
Steve Webster's Higamos Hogamos returns in yet another incarnation, this time collaborating with a host of musicians and machines. The results are a step away from the glam infused swagger of his debut Higamos Hogamos album towards a kind of divergent dancefloor music that utterly defies definition. Think 'Remain In Light Era' Talking Heads meets Detroit proto-techno with Bootsy Collins and Michael Rother on session duties!
This release comes in a hand made CD wallet. Another CD EP from Higamos Hogamos is coming very soon!

Demian Castellanos' Oscillation project finds its new home on All Time Low for this EP, the first studio release since "Out Of Phase" (DC Recordings). Over three tracks the Oscillation sound veers between the noise driven no-wave fuzz of title track "Future Echo", the blistering krautrock of "3rd Harmonic" and the droning medicated tones of "See Through You".
This release is a handmade 12" limited to 300 copies which includes a foldout poster and a digital download of the EP's tracks.
