Oliver Sean & Mark Rocha on Radio Indigo


Oliver Sean and Mark Rocha having a blast at the Radio Indigo station during the 'One On One interview with Oliver Sean' on the 28th of April - the day before the mega W.O.A Records India Tour concert in Goa on the 29th of April 2008 which was a huge success.

Oliver Sean to enthrall audiences at the Candle Light rally on World Earth Day

Panaji, April 21: On the occasion of World Earth Day, celebrated worldwide on April 22, Big 92.7 FM will be addressing key issues concerning the environment while increasing awareness on matters of global concern such as fuel conservation, water conservation, global warming, etc.

In an effort to increase awareness, Big 92.7 FM will hold a massive signature campaign across the state over the next three days, says a press note issued here. In addition a candlelight rally will be held on the evening of April 22 to coincide with World Earth Day, starting from Kala Academy and winding it’s way to the municipal garden in Panjim.

After the rally, Goa's ace music artist Oliver Sean will enthrall audiences with a special unplugged performance at the Panjim municipal garden.

Global Warming is a serious concern today. Spreading awareness about the ill effects of global warming and finding ways to reduce its effects is the only solution to this growing concern.

Big 92.7 FM is spearheading this cause with the signature campaign where people will be educated about various ways in which they can help reduce the constant damage being done to the environment. People will be encouraged to pledge their support through this campaign, which will then be presented to the Government of Goa.

Commenting on this initiative, Ms Manisha Tripathi, station head, Big 92.7 FM, Goa, said, “We’re proud to partner with the Department of Science, Technology and Environment and Goa Energy Development Agency, on this initiative.”

W.O.A Records India Tour 2008 - The World’s best Independent Artists take over the Indian Music Scene for 15 days!




W.O.A International Breaks New Ground for International Independent Music in India with the W.O.A Records India Tour 2008

Goa, India – April 7, 2008 – There have been large tours before, but few can come close to the scale and ambition of the W.O.A International India Tour 2008. Bringing together 10 international artists from the 15th to the 30th of April 2008 to various cities across India, this is the start of the independent music revolution in this part of the world.

“It’s one of the most ambitious tours we’ve organized,” says Wanda Alvares, Executive Vice President and Marketing Director “From co-ordinating the schedule and the travelling and hotel requirements to actually getting the venues to support all these great acts, it’s a lot of work. But it’s worth it.” The media interest in the event, not to mention the artists appearing on the tour, are testament to this hard work.

The artists include respected worldwide acts like world music star Oliver Sean, American star Xiren, Japanese Rocker Sparky Quano and Six other bands and artists from Australia, New Zealand, Spain & US, playing everything from electronica to rock, there’s something for everyone’s taste.

The media certainly agrees, with support from Major Networks, Publications and Radio. This support will see the artists conduct a special 5-day press and media meet and video shoot during the tour, allowing both sides to share in this special event.

W.O.A International will also be producing a compilation CD comprising of every artist on the tour and a Rockumentary. The Rockumentary is expected to garner immense support and interest as it will show International artists from various countries touring India together and performing at world class events – a true Independent music revolution in India caught on tape.

With an even bigger, better and most of all louder tour planned for 2009, the W.O.A International Tour of India is just the first in a planned annual event. Make sure you catch it while you can.

W.O.A Records releases their highly anticipated Album- Goa Chillout Zone Vol. 1 Compilation CD


Goa Chillout Zone Vol. 1 CD Launch Brings Together Best of Independent Music and Animal Rights Charities

W.O.A International releases compilation CD, percentage of sales go towards fight against the fur trade

Goa, India – January 25, 2008 – W.O.A International proudly announces the launch of the first volume in the Goa Chillout Zone CD collection. Comprising of 26 world artists from both the company’s record label W.O.A Records as well as unsigned acts, it’s an eclectic double CD bringing together some of the very best artists in independent music today. Best of all, it’s part of an extremely worthwhile cause at the same time.

“With this release, we’re not only bringing original and exciting music to the public,” says Wanda Alvares, Executive Vice President / Head of Marketing, “we’re also giving back to a cause we believe passionately in. For every CD sold, we will give 10% of the sale to a charity that supports animal welfare, especially animal rights groups that work against the fur trade.”

With the fur trade responsible for the torture and murder of over 50 million animals worldwide every year, purely for the benefit of fashion lovers, it’s a business that’s continuously in the news. W.O.A International recognizes that it’s something that won’t be changed overnight, but passionately believe that continued support in the fight against it will eventually win through.

The Goa Chillout Zone CD Vol. 1 is the first release in a planned five-volume collection. Bringing together the best that W.O.A International has to offer as well as unsigned independent artists worldwide, it includes the likes of Oliver Sean, Tiger Tiger and Cuca Moreno from W.O.A Records, as well as unsigned acts like Amy Duncan, Juliet Annerino and The Green.

Such has the pre-release interest been in the first volume that W.O.A International is already planning the second one, due for release in October 2008. Artists interested in appearing on Vol.2 are encouraged to submit their songs for submission onto the collection. With 10,000 copies being pressed and distributed to Yahoo Music and iTunes as well as retailers and radio stations worldwide, and top clubs at holiday destinations like Ibiza, Goa, etc, it’s an excellent opportunity for unsigned artists to be heard by large audiences. Each artist selected for the CD will receive royalties and licensing fees, as well as copies for promotion.

With the Goa Chillout Zone CD Vol.1 set to be a huge success for both artists and the chosen charity, and Vol.2 already in the planning stage, 2008 looks set to be a milestone year for W.O.A International. Buy the CD today and find out what all the noise is about.

16 hours of WIFI

Well I finally got my 2 computers hooked up with wifi and my N93 communicating and cruising along with my two comps - yeah sounds sweet but it took me all day to get it up and running! and I must say that Windows XP's utility for managing your wifi connection is so crappy! All it took was me setting up the right IP addresses manually and that was it... Well if anyone has the same problem get in touch with me and Ill run you throgh the steps ;-)

But seriously, now that both my comps are wifi'd Im gonna enjoy working in my studio on Sonar and get Propeller Headsa Reason to work from my comp which is in my living room :) thats gonna be so cool and free up so much system resources. All you home studio enthusiasts - you gotta try this out - ofcourse we do it on a professional level but I cant tell you how great this is and how easy it is to use... not so easy to setup if you get into trouble installing it like me ;-) but overall a killer utility. Especially accessing large audio data.

I tried posting a blog last night but there was some technical issue and my blog entry just got deleted - can you believe it? I was so mad cause it was a funny one about a crappy movie I watched 'My Super Ex Girlfriend' :-)) ahhh its old news now anyway.

The recording sessions have been going great and 'Life is a mirror' Alison Woods' single is gonna be released on the 11th of sept. - its gonna be a worldwide online release and W.O.A Records is gonna allow free download of this track until the album gets launched next month. You can download the track at http://www.woarecords.com (available on the 11th of sept)

Been wanting to watch 'Omen' this past week but everytime I get ready to watch the DVD its after 1AM and then Im too scared to watch it all alone :-)

Cheers and Gnite,
Oliver

Got the Yamaha MSP5's finally!

I finally got the nerve to change my monitor setup in my studio. I read, reviewed the blogs, heard testimonials and thought ahhh what the heck lets just get these NS10M replacement killers ;-) I must say I LOVE THE MSP5's!!!!!!!!

For those who dont have a clue what Im talkin about here are the details:
NS10M were the old War heroes in every recording studio across the world, some call it the finest studio monitors and some call it the worst and they say because they are that bad they are really good cause then the songs mixed on these "Horrible" speakers will sound good everywhere else! Go figure :-) and the MSP5 is the new standard from yamaha because the trees used for NS10M's have finally become exitinct!!! Can you believe that? The Tree has finally become extinct!? (Its all your fault all you paper lovers of the world. switch to computers and avoid paper - RECYCLE MAN RECYCLE!!!)

Anyways - now my original monitoring setup is in my living room playing all my favourite songs via my Panasonic Amp and my NEW and BEAUTIFUL Nokia N93 :-) and Im getting used (surprisingly fast) to my new and sexy sounding MSP5's.

Im gonna put up my first MSP5 mix online on my website soon http://www.oliversean.com - its the same remix of 'Darna Chod Do' that I had promised a couple of days ago. I delayed putting it up cause my MSP's arrived and I wanted to do the mix on them.

Gonna post a few pics of my SPANKING NEW MSP5's shot with my SPANKING NEW N93 in my next post. (I am in gadget heaven these days) ;-)

Cheers,
Oliver

Correction to the previous blog subject line.

Hi everyone,just a quick post to make a correction to the subject line of the earlier post. The subject line should be read ' My N93 puts me ON the official nokia blog'.
cheers
Oliver.

My N93 puts me to the official nokia blog

How cool is this... I was googling myself (ahem) on this lazy sunday afternoon... Oh come on stop laughing - i know u all google ur names too! Anyway, i come across this interesting listing which reads "Oliver Sean and his N93"!
Now this totally baffled me cause i thought some fan saw me being camera happy at some beach or somethin and wrote this on his blog. But imagine my suprise when i get transferred to the official nokia blog :-) and see that its about this blog of mine :) its just cool.
Oh by the way i've been using the n93 to write and post my blog! So yes it is the coolest phone i have ever had! But the best is when i go to a restaurant and whip the phone out and twist it into, what i like to call, Laptop mode. No one can resist looking :) but my dates seem to have started hating my beautiful N93... Hmm i wonder why??? ;)
I just came up with a plan- im gonna load some backup music on the n93 (the sound quality competes with my snow minidisc u know) and seranade to them under a moonlit sky on the beach. That should stop this stupid rivalry and they'll finally let me play with my fav toy hahaha just kiddin.
cheers,
Oliver Sean.
Ps: here is a poster of one of my concerts.

Remixing Songs and Selling Phones

Today I finally sat down and remixed the title track of my new album 'Darna Chod Do'. This is the album scheduled for release this month and I must say that the remix is sounding great - even had comments from from my co producers that the video should be done for the remix instead :-) (These guys really know how to flatter me)

Good news I got is that my label wants to shoot extra footage of the main video and make a video for the remix - how cool is that?!!!

Well besides working on the remix and getting it "almost" ready I also went and sold off my E61 today :-( it was heart breaking but I had to - I have the Nokia N93 now and my trusty old Nokia 6255 CDMA - I just didnt see the point in keeping the E61 safely tucked away in my closet ;-)

Oh by the way Im gonna put the remix up on my site so you all can download it and leave me a few comments on what you think of the song. http://www.oliversean.com

Cheers,
Oliver

Im so addicted to Tv that its starting to piss me off! Im gonna try and disconnect my Cable and just switch off the Tv for a couple of days.... Nah, I just couldnt survive! :-) I am so used to it - its like going to the loo - you just cant stop it ;-)

Here is a pic we clicked with my N93 of me and my friends chilling out at Cafe Coffee Day today in Miramar Panjim Goa (My hometown) and also a favourite pic of mine of Ashvem Beach in Goa, I clicked this with my Treo 650 the first day I got it (makes me cry just to think of the treo being stolen) :-((. Anyways hope you like the pic its just beautiful.

Cheers,

Oliver Sean Picture Collage


Here is a new design made by my publicist in the US - Basically a collage of my Pictures. I just think it looks real cool in Black and White and thought I should put it up here.
(Great job Heidi - your designing skills have improved since 8 years ago ;-) I love this Picture collage.)

By the way, this is used as the template on my page on 'MySpace' http://www.myspace.com/oliversean and seems to be a hit with all the people who write in to me there and who I definitely consider my friends rather than Fans.

I've been spending a lot of time on the computer now that my Nokia E61 is packed up and my N93 is in my hands most of the time - the N93 is a great phone but the E61 was definitely like a laptop and I hardly used my comp for any of my web work but the N93 isnt that user friendly for editing work - well you have to make compromises for style I suppose ;-) Good thing is Im gonna have loads of pictures now for all my friends to see now - will try and keep the pics interesting...

Oh, I downloaded a cool little software from the net just a while ago - Its a timer for the comp to shut down at a particular time - so for all of you guys out there who have free internet in the nights - keep it on all night and use this software to shut it down just before 6AM (usually the time when the billing kicks in again) and you can sleep soundly till 11AM ;-)) and get your downloads done without wakin up in a cold sweat at 4 AM saying "Shit is it 6AM?" hahaha. Anyways the software is called "StayOn" found it on google - real cool I think.

Ciao for now. (Gonna sleep its 2:08AM)

Phone Fanatic - Treo 650, E61, N93 - how to stop this obsession?!

My fanatism with phones and how it became an obsession ;-)

First I was a normal gadget freak - would buy a good phone (well I always had about 2 phones as far back as I can remember but mostly cause I used CDMA and GSM) and then I got the Treo 650 and my life changed...

All of a sudden I didnt need the Computer so much and I didnt have to take my laptop everytime I travelled (My guitar as hand luggage was too much as it is), so there I was flaunting my new treo 650 (not too many used in India I should say) so all my friends were impressed and their nokias didnt come close ;-) I thought I didnt need any other phone for atleast 2 years or untill the Treo 700p came out ;-)

But then a terrible day came when my Treo 650 got STOLEN!!!!!! It was at a concert of mine in Bangalore - can you believe it? My concert! while I was on stage! a "FAN" comes close to the Mixing board which was unmaned for a few minutes and where my Treo was lying right on top of the Mixer :-( and my baby was taken away....

But anyways I had a few single malts and tried to drown my sorrows in some of the finest single malt scotch in the world... But I culdnt take this disconnected feeling - its unelievable how you get so used to being connected to your emails and the net with a phone like that (I know how the blackberry users feel now). So as soon as I reached Goa (My Home Town) the next morning, I went straight to the phone shop from the airport and started looking for phones - sadly the Treo 650 is not easily available in India so I couldnt get it again :-( but then I saw the E61 and my world changed.... WIFI on a business phone, that critics say is better than the treo and blackberry WOW!!! But damn, no touch screen! But I threw caution to the wind and got the E61 even though it didnt have touch screen nor a camera....

And I was HAPPY! it was great until yesterday I saw the Nokia N93 (have been seeing the ads for a while now) but I actually held it in my hands yesterday, saw the features and thought Id died and gone to heaven ;-)

Well so I went and got it - yep - its expensive but after the treo 650 got stolen anyone would think Id just get a simple phone and say ahhh Ill just stick to my laptop but I dunno, its getting worse - Now I have 2 huge phones, both with unbelieveable features and now im confused - do i keep the E61 or the N93? The E61 has awesome business features plus the qwerty keyboard and the N93 is THE BEST MULTIMEDIA PHONE - do I keep both? :") r should I start checkin for business software for the N93 so I can keep the multimedia phone and do my business functions on it too? All u gadget freaks out there - Tell me what you think I shhould do?

Oh did I mention that the N93 audio quality is unbelievable? ;-)

Anyways, enough of my ramblings, Im gonna start posting all the cool pics Im gonna be snappin up with my N93.

Cheers,
Oliver
