Ott - Mir
Ottsonic, 2011
1. One Day I Wish To Have This Kind Of Time
2. Adrift In Hilbert Space
3. Owl Stretching Time
4. Squirrel And Biscuits
5. A Nice Little Place
6. Mouse Eating Cheese
7. The Aubergine Of The Sun
Ladies and gentlemen - here's "Mir". The leading chillosaur of Twisted Records took a break from the twisted gang, which fell into the indie-band craze via the Younger Brother band, and decided to seek new paths on his sonic journey. The result is an album which appeared first in the Internet's realm thanks to the Bandcamp platform and only then in physical form as a CD. Everything was accomplished without the need for any label and with full control of the artist himself. And though the artist chose an experimental way of releasing this album, in terms of its content expect the familiar, trusty style a'la Ott, although it should be noted that this time the musician decided to add a few innovations to the menu which do not spoil the overall reception of the album and enhance its value in the ears of the listener.
We begin with "One Day I Wish To Have This Kind Of Time," where we are accompanied by Alan Watts' voice and make contact with Ott's familiar musical territories. It has a nice mood, it is reflective and slightly melancholic, yet fun and psychedelic. Once again the artist allows himself to go with the flow and takes a relaxed approach towards the process of creating music, which results in his frivolous, light and generously bathed in sunshine style known from the first album "Blumenkraft", surrounding us from every side. The style is especially continued in the tracks entitled "A Nice Little Place" and "Mouse Eating Cheese". While "Skylon", the previous record by Ott, might seem a little bland, here the creator fully rehabilitated himself with a strong material; music that does not copy his earlier productions, borrowing only the best things from the musician's style, and building something new, interesting, adding new elements to Ott's world, such as glitch and dubstep, which were not previously a part of his earlier albums. Fans of these will be in heaven, while those who do not listen to such music on a daily basis will have no reasons to complain, because everything was done in an intelligent way. One can feel them very clearly in several tracks ("Adrift In Hilbert Space," "Owl Stretching Time" and "Squirrel And Biscuits") and it has to be added that they mix in a relatively non-invasive way with the sound represented by Ott. The fact that it is very easy to get addicted to his sound is known by anyone who has tasted this album. Needless to say, a replay of its content is a mandatory thing in this case.
Ott earned himself a good brand a long time ago and has proved this once again with this highly likeable album. It is evident that we will not come in contact with any mediocre tracks here. "Mir" is a good choice in terms of lighter music, especially on a lazy, sunny day. I keep my fingers crossed that the next album will be as successful, the least imitative and the most creative. In conclusion, let me quote a phrase by my buddy: it makes you go out to a meadow and catch fistfuls of the sun.

I do like The Aubergine of the sun... a lot! Wow. Track 1 was also nice, the other ones are not for me, that said, the overall production level of Ott never ceases to absolutely totally completely amaze me. Something to strive for... hey, one can try...
