Osees is coming out with another album this year Panther Rotate slated for release on December 11th 2020. Panther Rotate is sold as re-mixes and a companion to or another dimension of Protean Threat. “Don’t Blow Your Experiment” and “Scramble Experiment” are the first video and sounds released from the album. (Videos Below)
“Don’t blow Your Experiment” is a new world for OSees with heavy overdubs and production used to remix. The sound is difficult to describe and harder to define. It has motorik bass lines, steady drumming layers of synth and spare guitar. The music is lysergic as though it passed through a reality altering filter.
“Scramble Experiment” uses “Scramble Suit II” from Protean Threat and dramatically transformed the song with this psychedelic weirdo remix. The vocal melody is the same on the original and the remix but slower.
Here’s what John Dwyer had to say about Osees – Panther Rotate:
“In the swirling & undulant warm mud of jettisoned reels of magnetic tape, blurps up the fog of reinvention.
Every night I would parley with my pilots and run and rerun the recordings.
Right up until the moment sleep slips its veil over eyes and ears
and you drift back without a sound.
Protean Threat dream haze becomes Panther Rotate in the other dimension.
A companion LP of remixes, field recordings, and sonic experiments using all sounds generated by the him and crackle of the desert farm.
A second version of our “Protean Threat” if you will, but barely conspicuous in its relation.
Forward, never straight!
Sunrise, sunset.
Two lives connected by a cosmic thread,
One for your feet and one for your head.
For fans of Thee Oh Sees, Oh Sees, OCS, The Oh Sees, Osees, and OSE∃S etc etc etcetcetc
Be Well,
JPD“
What Kind Of Vinyl Will Osees – Panther Rotate be released on?
The UK has a Limited to 1000 copies green yellow highlighter colored vinyl available at independent record shops. The UK also has a black version and no idea how many of the black are available but snooping around online it seems to be a limited release.
The US version has little description at the record shops. The stores show the cover art of a cats butt and balls in all its psychedelic colored glory. The vinyl is described as black LP. Preorder only available from record stores.
Lenticular 3D cover art version Rumors and Other possibilities. Osees – Panther Rotate
**Beware information below is not verified, It may be incorrect****
It appears that there will be a variant with a 3D printed cover limited to 1000 copies coming direct from Castle Face Records in November. This print will rotate the cat on the cover side to side. In other words it will wiggle its ass and balls at you!! Also rumors of a limited edition large poster with the 3D lenticular rotating artwork sold separately.
That’s all I know. Wish I had more to give you but you can order a copy right now from local records stores plenty still up online but I do believe word is getting out.
“Or do you wait for the 3D copy or do you get both… Just in case the 3D sells out before I can grab one…”
