i love Ovuca so much - i don't think he gets much respect though. The reason i enjoy this album so much is that it has plenty of variety and no two tracks are really alike in style or form - and there's over 70 of them, and i found that this album has not succeeded in boring me yet.
My favourite has to be Industro Contrast.

It's a decent album, Mr. Charisma. The thing I like about that album and Lactavent is the helter-skelter-ness of it all.

Ovuca is always an uplifting experience. Almost every song on here sounds like you've got this kid that just got his first keyboard and didn't care about rules or what people say. It's not until the Astrobotnia (and Wasted Sunday to some extent) releases that he started sounding really pro.
Looking at old Astrobotnia topics here is funny. As soon as it becomes apparent that AB is this d00d from Finland and not Richard, interest seems to die out.

I've only got the first 33 songs...is that the better half or what? Industro Contrast, Golden Pagoda, Northern Comfort and Treehugging are all good.

I only have Wasted Sundays (which I find amazing). I like the way he plays around with sounds he may have made with his mouth but then adds a melodic side to it. Is Onclements same style? Am seeing Astrobotnia live tonight. Hope he's good on stage!!

i only listened to the first cd so far and its really nice - his pre-astrobotnia music is quite fantastic
why the hell did he record that astrobotnia series , he would be much more appreciated with out that imo

I've got lactavent, king stacey and wasted sunday too. Wasted sunday is very good and king stacey also but i don't like lactavent that much. Guess it's ok though.

Yeah, I don't see the logic in making three fantastic albums under a completely different name... they would add to a sparkling Ovuca legacy and make for one of the better catalogues in IDM. I guess he doesn't care about personal accolades. Dumbass.

funny story about Ovuca....
the way Rephlex discovered him is that they were watching a Finnish porn flick and liked the music in the background, read the credits, and it turned out the guy who had made it(Ovuca) had been sending them demos for many years now.
So they ask him to send more - he sends them three demos credited to someone named Rachel Thompson - one was ground hum, the other record hiss, and the last was tape crackle.
Grant thinks, "anyone who sends something like this as a demo has GOT to be worth calling." So they call him up - he's in the ARCTIC CIRCLE, looking at the northern lights, piss drunk, naked, with AB3 blasting in the background.
When they asked him where he was at, he answers - "I'm in Lapland right now."
And they think - "yeah, he's the man."
I really should put that article up sometime....

i love lactavent album and onclements. i like wasted sunday a little less, and i don't care for astrobotnia much anymore.
especially "onclements" are the reason i'll be always interested in his new releases
