Here's more Swedish sweets from Ogo Dys.
Released in 2008 on 3"CDR, "Ohm" contains 3 tracks, clocking the total time at 13 minutes.

Ogo Dys in a psychedelic mood.

The 3"CDR got re-released as a vinyl 7" on the Tooth Rez label in 2011.

Here's 'Princess Moondust', the second track on "Ohm".

OGO DYS - IULPIUS DYN

• ogo dys: iulpius dyn
      (2009, cdr, sweden, studio vimanas)

It should have become clear to you by now that I acquired a number of Ogo Dys releases last week. All because of his contribution to the "Mother People Ripped Our Blunderland" album (and the fascinating bits that I found on YouTube).

On "Iulpius Dyn" Magnus Lundberg (Ogo Dys) continues his exploration of the jazz-rock / prog rock world.
Fascinating.
Data has been added to the United Mutations Archives.

OGO DYS - OVERION III

• ogo dys: overion III
      (2009, cdr, sweden, private release)

What should one expect from an album that is entitled "Overion III"?
Spacy and experimental punk rock, infected with backwards sounds, bombastic musical movements and cartoonesque sounds?
Something with a theremin?

Well, that's exactly what it is.
This is superb !!
Four pieces, each one around 10 minutes long.
Out of this world. Literally
I love it.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - GARAGE ROCK

• various artists: garage rock
      (2003, cd-promo, uk, extreme music xcd087)

The 2003 "Garage Rock" album is another one of those Extreme Music samplers. Music intended for the so-called music professionals who can buy it and use it for commercials and stuff.
The album presents compositions by Blues Saraceno, Dweezil Zappa and Marcus French / Chris Brown.
15 tracks, 3 Dweezil Zappa compositions / performances : 'Fuzzball', Highly Strung' and 'Snow Job'.

VARIOUS ARTISTS - PUNK METAL

• various artists: punk metal
      (2003, cd-promo, uk, extreme music xcd092)

Embellishing the United Mutations Archives, here's the 2003 "Punk Metal" album.
The album was made available for music professionals by Extreme Music, an organisation that supplies music for ads, documentaries, movies, etceteras.
"Punk Metal" captured 15 tracks by three artists: Blues Saraceno, Nick Nolan, and Dweezil Zappa.
Dweezil wrote and performed two of the tracks: 'Urban Riff' and 'Power Bitch'.

OGO DYS - NEPTUNE EVERYWHERE

• ogo dys: neptune everywhere
      (2008, cdr, sweden, cosmic pancake productions)

Ogo Dys is the nom de plume of Magnus Lundberg, musician, graphic artist and the man behind Cosmic Pancake Productions.
In 2008, Ogo Dys released "Neptune Everywhere". This 30-minute album presents rhytmically challenging 1970's oriented prog rock.
Very nice.
Very nice indeed.

If you're in to experimental prog rock / Zappa / science-fiction, you should really check this out.

In 2010, Ogo Dys contributed a Zappa mash-up / tribute / coverversion to "Mother People Ripped Our Blunderland", also on Cosmic Pancake Productions.
