All bones and no Flesh!

imomusWell, I've been promising these mp3s for a year. Oskar Originals comprises mp3s of the original versions of the songs on the 2003 album from Momus, Oskar Tennis Champion. Now you can hear and download these songs in the raw form in which Reproducer John Talaga (aka Fashion Flesh) heard them before he began his work of mangling, micro-engineering and re-splicing. All bones and no flesh, as it were. Also included are some extra tracks and out-takes.

Listening to the uncooked versions more than a year after making the Oskar album in Tokyo in late 2002, I'm more than ever convinced that what Sir John Fashion Flesh (currently hard at work with Oliver Cobol on the second Super Madrigal Brothers album) did was alchemy of the highest order. But these early versions do have their moments -- passages of naive charm, urgency or intimacy. For those who know the Oskar album well, it'll be interesting to see how much glitchery was in the originals... and how much wasn't.
I've been completely gobsmacked by your generosity so far -- consider your honour as responsible file sharers and patrons of the arts completely vindicated! Suggested donation this time, if you like and keep these files, is $4 or €3 for the whole album (plus demo artwork by Florian Perret -- click the small image for a larger one). Please bear in mind that these files in no way replace the Oskar CD, which remains the authorized version and, in my opinion, takes the tennis championship cup for the second year in a row. Front row seats are the price of a CD and are available at a record store near you!
