Wooden Baby for Psychedelic/Space Rock

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

WOODEN BABY is a late eighties side project from two OZRIC TENTACLES members. It incorporates HAWKWIND-like space rock music combined with darker cold wave, gothic sounds of the 80's and a few oriental ambiances.
From EAT STATIC wikipedia page:
"Merv Pepler and Joie Hinton met as drummer and keyboard player (respectively) for Ozric Tentacles, a long-standing psychedelic space rock band from Somerset. Although OZRIC TENTACLES incorporated elements of electronic music, Pepler and Hinton were drawn towards the rave oriented dance music. In 1988 they collaborated on a project under the name of WOODEN BABY which hinted at early rave and techno sounds as well as numerous other styles, and by 1990, the project had evolved into EAT STATIC."

Here are some extracts:

If the embeddings do not work:

Extract 2
Extract 3

They released 3 albums:
Stuck In The Mind-Cage (1988)
Forbidden Pastures (1989)
Embalment (1990)
(from Discogs.com)

I think it will be an interesting addition, as there are very few space-rock bands featuring colder 80's sounds.

	Did you send this one directly to the PSIKE team Modrigue? If not you should probably do so. There are sooooooooooo many new suggestions in this part of the forum that it gets increasingly more difficult keeping up with them.

	No, but I think it just had been approved in the PSIKE discussion thread.

	Ok. Just for future reference: it's far better if you make suggestions directly in the appropriate team thread. That way you circumvent it falling through the cracks
