VISIONS & REVISIONS by C.J. Boyd Remixed

One of the unfortunate aspects of recording is that we take music, which is inherently alive and always changing, and we freeze it for eternity. Instead of shifting and adapting as is its nature, it is forced to stay exactly the same until the LP or CD or whatever becomes unplayable. With this online release, I'd like to overcome that restraint by allowing continual updates. Just as a remix is the re-envisioning of a song that was previously thought to be "finished," this album will undergo a revision every time I a new remix (a good one anyway). I'll continue to re-approach the whole album and start moving things around to see if this new addition can find a home there. Sometimes that means deleting a song or two. Sometimes that means coming up with an entirely different order for the tracks. Sometimes there is just no place on the record for that new track, and so I save it until the album changes enough to admit it. Likewise, the CDRs and tapes that carry this music will only be made in small batches so that when they sell out, I can replace them with updated versions. If you buy a record, be sure to check back once and a while and see what updates have been made, which you can download.

OMO is a label focusing on stunning physical media.
Although Mp3s are available here, every release is a tangible object which we hope will enhance the experience of the music. These albums are meant to live on tape, or vinyl, or book, or pez dispenser, or something we hope will be as aesthetically stimulating as the music it conveys.
