mashitup! is 79.1666667% done - the tracklist looks like this:
and track 12 on disc 2 is going to be a 10-15 minute mix to continue the ocularist tradition of putting long mixes at the end of every album - will feature a remix of 'i'm sorry for being so good at making tracks' as well as a previously unheard raggacore track or two...
if we end up sampling babylon bwoy again, please come find us in reading or sheffield and please punch us hard and/or smash several glass bottles over our heads. thank you
it is currently 10:57am as this is being written and no further progress on mashitup! has been made. the next track we make will probably sample gorillaz or eminem or both and probably some other half-rapping ass bitches just for contrast
and it is now currently 11:46pm as this is being written and still no progress has been made except for a eurodance mashup megamix that was ditched after some 35 odd minutes of work. please tune in later tonight or tomorrow for more updates
yesterday, electronic musician radium asked several people over instagram if they would like to remix tracks off his upcoming ep, 'good luck'. in response, we took up this offer and hence the track 3 'amphibian' ocularist raggacore mix was born. it is currently underway but updates will be posted down the line.

radium - amphibian (ocularist's crackdown raggacore mix)
out 25/01/23
ocularist is back and here to bless the general public with a short track that will appear on the forthcoming emcd christmas comp: 'last christmas i gave you nothing'
it's a one minute track completely composed of wham's 'last christmas' and involves lots of audio scrambling and glitching, etc. out soon so keep an eye on emcd
ocularist is back, yet again! we are sorry for the huge gap in updates, we've been very busy working hard trying to squeeze out tracks and albums and sets and mixes for everyone to hear.
firstly - happy new year to everybody! secondly - the amphibian ocularist remix is confirmed to release on platforms on the 25th, and thirdly and most importantly - the second ocularist megamix is underway - a 180bpm cacophony of gorillaz, doormouse, kid606, bjork, outkast, hrvatski, and more! expect to hear it live on youtube sometime around the end of january, probably accompanied by some visuals of us doing stupid shit.. thanks for reading
we're out with a new megamix with a runtime of 24 minutes and 26 songs smashed together into a huge mess. excerpt from bandcamp description: 'second in the 'series', ocularist is back to bless your ears with something vaguely resemblant of kid606's 'up from dabassment' or even more vaguely resemblant of dj /rupture's 'gold teeth thief' (neither of which are similar to this mix whatsoever but it's good that they were mentioned because now people will have their expectations high). in just under a month, we managed to throw together this noisy amalgamation which manages to squeeze cex and d12 together, as well as bjork and hrvatski, as well as george michael and christoph de babalon, etc.'
