Various Vegetables Radio #67 | A Psychedelic Paraiso

Summer is almost gone. Time for one last mindbending trip to towards sun, space and back to sandy grounds. As our tour guide for the first half of the trip we‘ve choosen a wonderful company called El Paraiso Records who has been releasing a far amount of wonderful Vinyl Releases reaching from Instrumental Psychedelic Rock to Fusion Jazz to Analog Synthkraut. This leads us straight to the musical influences of the latest 4-Track EP of our Vegkrew boy Octobird that has also been released on the day of the show on Pr0gramma Music where he‘s building a path from classic Psychedelic Recordings to modern Techno and Electronica.

Octobird: Baikonur EP | out on Pr0gramma Records

Vegboy Octobird's latest EP just got released on Pr0gramma Records.

"With a progressive blend of uncanny melodies and warping harmonics, the Baikonur EP feels almost like a computer data process that somehow got itself locked into techno rhythms. The organic timbre even lies oddly between raw synthesis and heavily processed acoustics. These binaries ultimately balance but provide a mysticism that uniquely destabilizes the listen. Particularly Baikonur and The Gate exemplify this eccentric mix of evolving musicality and an odd sense that it’s all just data being filtered through melodious substructures."

This is Octobird's second EP release after last year's 1st of Octobird.

Bham Bham & VV @ RAUXXHAUVZ

The first round was fun, the second round will be serious fun. Yet again members from Widescope, Various Vegetables, Experimental Dimension & Zanderhythm sat together to prepare another minbending experience.

Happy 1st of Octobird!!!

You may know him under his monikers Loom or Kinskop. You may know him as part of the Various Vegetables Crew. You may have realized him as the eight-armed Discjuicer and and Soundbird on the Various Vegetables Radio Show.

....and now you may realize, that he makes tunes, too.

A little more to the Floor! A little more Acid drowned.
And as the 1st October is  a holiday from now on, you can download the thing for free.

Wave your Tentaclles in the air and say "Oh, Yeah!"
