ONLINE FINDS


1) A review of our 1st proper gig (last November)

"Decked out in aprons and thick-rimmed glasses and making liberal use of art-school projections, Olo Worms appear to be just as much a visual as a musical concept".

2) A Dutch website's little write up on OLO Radio

> CLICK HERE TO ATTEMPT TO READ or read the rough translation below that an OLO mum did (thanks mum!)..

"In our unremitting journey to all things Deerhoof, we came by chance to a podcast of John Dieterich, the guitarist of the nuts lunatic company from San Francisco. Dieterich takes you on a fantastic trip, but OLO Radio contains yet more gold gems.

Dieterich begins its mix with Fiery Furnaces and closes finished with Danielson, familiar names from the indie-scene, but among those he entices us always more deeply within in its musical universe, along modest pianostukjes of Béla Bartók and Erik Satie, jazzy ballads of Nedelle and The Curtains, raw acoustic punk of Cheval the Fresh and luizige drum 'n basses of Good For Cows.

Dieterich is one of the 'special guests' on OLO Radio, a radio blog of OLO Worms, a bunch weirdo's as their homepage and MySpace-profile show, but good weirdo's with good taste. You may name yourself a connoisseur, but you may know only half of the artists on the playlists by name, but OLO Radio the trouble overlords are not concerned about that. There is music there to be discovered."

DRUNKEN WEREWOLF MAGAZINE (Bristol Special)

Below is the front cover Boonbeans designed for this month's Drunken Werewolf magazine (Bristol special) with You & The Atom Bomb in space/underwater..it's not quite clear? Click on the image to enlarge for a closer look. It features a load of good Bristol bands and friends of ours like Safetyword, You & The Atom Bomb, Rachel Dadd and Countryside. Word is we may be in the next one or the one after. I should have blogged this last week cos it's sold out now. Maybe it'll get re-printed someday?

AN AP-OLO-GY

Dear Radio Fans,

Oh my!! We are soo sorry we were off air for soo long. This will not happen again! To be honest there is no real reason for the absence other than..we got fat and lazy. So unfortunately this meant there was no Christmas or Best of the Year podcast.

However, while we were away Boonbeans did compile a few 'best of 2007' lists (for his own enjoyment), these can be viewed here.. SONGS / ALBUMS / VIDEOS / GIGS

We are all very excited about stepping back into the old OLO Radio studio again and creating lots of new mixes for you. We also have a whole load of special guest mixes for you coming up very soon.

Stayed tuned to OLO!

Regards,

OLO Radio Team
