The Oompah Roundabout news.

                                                The Oompah Roundabout news.
The Oompah Roundabout are planning to go back into the studio (Gap Central recording studio)
to record their new song!
This will be their 5th single release. They are also planning a higher output this year (2015) with plenty of material to choose from they tell me they basically pull a song name out of a hat and that becomes the next release! Their new song is entitaled "Big Knob"! A catchy medium paced song with lots of lalalala's as Windy and Hormone put it in the song for everyone to sing a long to.
Hormone has just returned from a Holiday to Bali where he got two new tattoo's, a new cymbal and cow bell for The Oompah Roundabout studio drum kit and a nice new canon lense to use on future film clips at Halfanacker film studio.
Hormone has just put up a video of his tattoo session on The Oompah Roundabout uTube channel!
I'll put the link here. http://youtu.be/9jXFyU8Qxdw
They have also just bought a new old vintage YC-20 Yamaha organ that they will use on future songs and they have a video of that on The Oompah Roundabout uTube channel as well, With Hormone showing off his brilliant playing skills! George wobble, Hormone's much love shitzu just loves his playing! Poor Dog! hahahahaha
I'll put that link here. http://youtu.be/e_GtCjXONA0
So if you are into truly indie rock then check out The Oompah Roundabout! They write, Record,and produce all their music, using real instruments. Basically it's old school recording using digital instead of tape. They also film and edit their own video's with a 0 budget and learning as they go philosophy.
They have as they say loads of fun.
Support this Australian indie band and like,subscribe and comment on their video's!
They tell me they will reply to all comments good and bad.
I'll put their uTube channel link here.  https://m.youtube.com/user/TheOompahRoundabout
The following links are some of the places where you can download The Oompah Roundabout songs!

The Oompah Roundabouts 4th video out now!

                                      The Oompah Roundabout's 4th video, out now!

The Oompah Roundabout's 4th music video is out and up on their uTube channel!
It's to their latest record entitled "Breed with you".
A fast paced song recorded in their Home recording studio ( gap central recording studio ) and once
again sent over to the USA to be mixed and mastered by their good friend Mark S at the Wave Shop.
This is the first song to be recorded in the studio live room since the boy's revamp accoustic treatment
was carried out.
The video was shot in their home film studio ( Halfanacker film studio ) with editting being carried out at 
Drummer Windy Wobbles edditting studio and also at Guitarist, Hormones Howe's Halfanacker film studio.
The boy's had some fun adding a bit of 1960s psychodalia to the clip and took an anything go's approach, using layer's of colour and visuals!
The video is a big jump forward as the oompah's learn more and more of what can be done and are 
already planning their next 2 video's to their next 2 releases before christmas.
They are planning a steady release of records in the new year and also hope to take the Oompah
beat on the road.
All their records are available for download at :

The Oompah Roundabout's 4th single is out!

The Oompah Roundabout's 4th single is out and is currently available at cdbaby.com http://www.cdbaby.com/Artist/TheOompahRoundabout with iTunes,Amizon,Google play and all other online stores to follow! 
The song is called "Breed with you"! A fast paced, rocker reminiscent of The Kinks, The Easybeats, The Knack, with a bit of The Jam and The Beatles thrown in as well! 
Recorded at their home studio ( Gap central recording studio ) and mixed / mastered at The Wave shop in the USA, This is the first recording since the studios upgrade a short time ago! and the boy's are pleased with the results! 
The layout and wall treatments have brightened the drum sound not to mention making more room for  microphone   placement allowing the boy's to try different mic setups!
In this song Hormone used his Rickenbacker for the rythum tracks and his mint coloured Fender stratocaster for the lead and over dubbed strums! adding texture and power to the guitar sound.
The video shoot is planned for early september and should be up on their uTube channel the end of that month!
Be sure to check out their uTube channel http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2M_Vwx-G7MA  like,subscribe and comment on their video's, As well as recording all their songs they also shoot and edit their video's at their home film studio they call ( Halfanacker film studio ) and are planning to not only add their music video's but also other video's, interviews,home studio vids, and what ever else their crazy minds can come up with! 
The Oompah Roundabout, Truly can call themselves an indie band and look like being around for some time! 
Oh, they asked me to say thanks for all the suport you have given them! they are blown away with it! and one last word! Oompah!  :):)

Gap central recording studio, Home of The Oompah Roundabout, Home recording studio.

    Gap central recording studio, Home of The Oompah Roundabout, Home recording  

Some fresh pics taken today ( 13-07-2014 ) of our control room named after Windy Woble called The Wind room in honor of Windy's masterful talents at mixing and general use of the Wind rooms equipment!
On the otherside of the red entrance door is what we both call Halfanacker film studio! 
This is where we ( The Oompah Roundabout ) shoot our video's, and it's named after me ( Hormone Howe ), An unfortunate incident consisting of myself and a indoor cricket ball back in the late 80's,
Outch! 
We have just completed all the tracking, and editing for our new single.
Windy has prepared the edited tracks and sent them to our mate mark at The Wave Shop in The USA for mixing and mastering.
When thats completed we then send it to cdbaby for release.
This will be our forth single and our first with the new live room setup and accoustic treatment, The drums are sounding a lot brighter and with having more room to move, enabled us to get the mic's where we wanted them rather than where they fitted. haha 
We are planning a video series in the not to distant future on gap central that will include what mic's we 
use and where we use them, everything we have in the studio and the studio its self.
So keep an eye out on our uTube channel for that and our official music videos as well.
Both windy and I ( Hormone ) would like to once again thank you for your support, Oompah!

Home recording studio, pT 2

                                                       Home recording studio PT 2.
The Oompah Roundabout were at it again yesterday! ( 12-6-14 ) Recording the lead break and re-recording the rythum guitar for their next single.
They have also decided to re-record the bass guitar after noticing some unwanted click sounds yesterday while putting down the lead. All this is the norm as on the first few listens, some things are not picked up. The boy's try to keep editing down and just replay the track, they say it's more fun than clicking a mouse! 
I'll keep you posted on their progress so stay tuned.         http://www.theoompahroundabout.com/

Home Recording Studio Put To Work.

                                                Home Recording Studio Put To Work.            
The Oompah Roundabout are back in their home recording studio working on two new songs!
Wanting to increase their output speed and get not only their back log material recorded, but also new songs that they write out as well.
The boys have also been busy doing some work to the live room of their home recording studio (gap central recording studio) in an effort to add more "reflection" to the sound the room produces.
Also the live room has been reorganised to create a bigger drum area for Windy Wobble, and giving the boys easier access for mic placement, as the boys love old school recording using accoustic drums and real instruments.
The Oompah Roundabout are 100% indie and have their own label (gonad records) for the release of their material.
They also produce their own film clips and call their production company Halfanacker films, named after an indoor cricket accident that Hormone Howe had some years ago.
( Nacker is "Australian slang" for Testical )
( Gonad is "English and Australian" slang, also for Testical )
The Oompah Roundabout currently have 3 singles out.
All 3 singles are available for download at all download sites including,
