Ocean Star Empire is goa-psy trance act touching three dots on a map - Nomad Moon from Portugal, Killik from Germany and Faxi Nadu from Israel. Communication was a path to a vision. Vision morphed into action. Action was transposed into a musical message.

Ten months in the making.... we have finished work on Ocean Star Empire's debut album. Everything is ready! Here are the first peaks into the album, deeeeeeeply psychedelic space story! Light a spliff and let your mind wander far, far away.....

pre-sales for support of our manufacture are available at http://oceanstarempire.com/ , limited to a maximum of 25 presales, 12euro each. we would love and could very much use support!

Like the ambient track. Do the other guys have Scope as well or do they send you the stems to master?

hey dante,

this is actually a very cool collab across a bunch of platforms. i am the only one with scope but we each have a unique approach and workflow and things we do, so when pulled into a single creation i feel we got something really interesting going, at one side fresh/unique and on the other side oldschool and cannonial.

nomad moon is from portugal and works with cubase
killik is from germany and works with fl-studio and a bit with protools

we started this almost by mistake, we know of each other online for some years through a psytrance forum, and then we started chatting together on an online radio chat. this led to us having a go at making a track together, and the way we worked is nomad started something, then sent the stems and sometimes midi to killik, who would start on a short arrange and also add some sounds. then it was sent to me and i would stretch out the arrange, add my sounds and complete the mix, before sending the whole thing back to killik for mastering :)

we have just uploded some more promo tracks to soundcloud, have a listen!!!! we are going to manufacturing next week - any additional pre-sales to support the manufacture are totally appreciated, plus as always will send a bunch of cool bonuses as well :D

thanks for checking us out guys!!!
