Review

Under the influence of Jacques Tati's film 'Playtime', OTC focuses on the juxtaposition of electro-acoustic avant sound with vaudeville-style stories & slapstick. This direction was rehearsed in albums Momus co-wrote & produced for Mashcat (Japanese singer Emi Necozawa) & Milky (his ex-wife Shazna) for Japanese labels. This trilogy of albums ('Mashroom Haircat', 'Travels With A Donkey' & finally 'Oskar Tennis Champion', the only one available outside Japan) represented Momus' need to reconcile a love of new experimental laptop groups like Scratch Pet Land, DAT Politics & Discom with his own particular evolution of the traditional song format -- a unique mix of pastiche & unreliable narration, role playing, kulturkritik, comedy, provocation & devil's advocacy. 'OTC' has been tweaked, mangled, glitched up & remixed by a young 'reproducer' - 22 year-old John Talaga, who also makes records under the name
