Yup.

Including the seminal Midsummer Nice Dream, all of Ochre's albums have been released on bandcamp for the chiefly sum of - whatever you want. That includes zero.

Nice time to grab them:

Not new releases I know, but certainly a new price and delivery format. And an extremely generous one.

Love these albums. Midummer Nice Dream and Lemodie also come with the CD pre-gap 'hidden' tracks. Bit disconcerting in his blog though that he hints he might not release any more records. That would be criminal.

Don't think he's hinting that- though he does say that it's impossible to make a living doing it nowadays, which is true.

I got Lemodie and Like Dust of the Balance when Benbecula was selling CDs for tuppence about a year ago. I think Lemodie is my favourite.

Oh, any recommendations for first album to listen to??

 

I Think his first, Midsummer, is the best starting point. It's mixing is fairly laid back and chill compared to the others, which get a bit more adventurous.

I forgot about this thread, but I started from there anyways... fantastic album!! I quickly moved on the Lemodie and it's almost as good (so far). This guy is awesome!! I hear tones of BOC, Plaid & Autechre all rolled in here. Anyone who hasn't checked him out has NO excuse now.

I got into his 'Volume 1-3' works first, then got lemodie, then midsummer... so I worked backwards :) But Midsummer is nice to start off with, particularly if you're a fan of BoC or Plaid.
