Pre-order link for Inflamed Rides
The band O.R.k., consisting of Lef (Obake, Berserk!), Colin Edwin (Porcupine Tree), Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson) and Carmelo Pipitone (Marta sui tubi), has decided, in keeping with the interactive, spontaneous nature of the band, to initiate a remix contest for one of the tracks on our forthcoming album Inflamed Rides.
The winning remix will be included on the limited edition CD, available for pre-order now.
Winning Remix
The band states that “We as O.R.k have decided to release our music directly without going through the traditionally accepted channels. This also means there is no intermediary between us and those who might share our journey with us.”
Across the ten tracks, O.R.k illuminate a deep subconscious landscape, rich with controlled chaos and populated with archetypal forms and characters. Highlights include the mezmerising ‘Pyre’, accompanied by a stunning animated video from Oktopus Productions and the jarring urgency of “Funfair” which promises entertaining rides in the most intimidating manner. Imposing, but also encompassing a hypnotic, powerful beauty, O.R.k. is a forward thinking, mischievous slap around the head of complacency, and a captivating listen from start to finish.
