Interesting chat, I can recommend it to everyone!

I asked about a physical Atmos version of Oxymore, but hearing his answer, probably not...

I have a Sony Xperia 5 III phone. It's great and it has Dolby Atmos "switch" on the audio settings. Not sure what this does to a standard mp3 file but is certainly makes music sound better thru headphones.

I really like the music on the album, but I think the cover art is awful.... what even is it meant to show? Given all that work and effort to create the associated Oxyville VR world, surely this is the visual that should accompany the music? The Oxyville skyline image used on the t-shirts currently in the store would make MUCH better cover art.

The front cover is pretty naff, but the rest of the artwork in the booklet is pretty good.

In the Twitch stream, JMJ hinted at a release with remixes/reworks of the Oxymore tracks. The next release would be Brian Eno doing something with the track Epica.

I just asked Grahame if the stream will be available for the people who've missed it. He told me they're busy editing the video due to Sony Music rights and stuff (they played several tracks of the new album during the interview).

First Dutch review I've seen:

Gets 4 out of 5 stars and is very positive. "Oxymore is a feast to listen to."

It's interesting listening to Oxymore and Deserted Palace back-to-back. It has some in common.

@jeanmicheljarre presents its new album Oxymore to us in the Happy Hour FG: "It took me 6 weeks to create it, it's the most special album of my career... I did feel recording in using noises from the street, from the body, from everyday life, I really had fun”
