Ocean Waves Productions

Ocean Waves Productions have built a solid reputation for supporting emerging Merseyside artists in the indie and rock scene – The Shipbuilders and The Sneaky Nixons, among others – but the production company’s latest project takes on an entirely new focus. Crossing the waters (quite literally), the company have announced Ocean Waves Band, a collective of reggae, R&B, hip-hop, and funk […]

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating * * * * Divisive is as divisive is allowed to do, like the Presidential namesake in which split the United States of America 40 years ago, Liverpool’s The Sneaky Nixons have seemed to have garnered the same ringing endorsement in how to win friends and influence people. What should […]

The Sneaky Nixons Liverpool’s most provocative rock ‘n’ rollers are back with a bite on their latest single Sex, Getintothis’ Patrick Clarke takes a listen to the latest from the ever-affronting Sneaky Nixons. “There’s always gonna be someone better than you. Unless you’re The Libertines,” said Sneaky Nixons firebrand Charlie Daniels in a rare moment of humility in our explosive interview with the band last year. It’s a notable coincidence […]

The Sneaky Nixons The Sneaky Nixons emerge from a turbulent past to promote their new single and Getintothis’ Matthew Wood was there to soak up the action. Opening the evening is versatile trio SPQR, whose set is an impressive exhibition of devilish guitar work, gut-busting tempo changes and a knack for unique song-structuring. They meander through the wildly psychedelic into […]

This isn’t a throwaway, patronising, woman hating statement, but the new download from the Liverpool Lo-fi trio, Ladies. And, the philosophical statement is a pretty apt one, because life isn’t all about winning. there are peaks and troughs – just like the events in Kiev and Allardyce-era Everton. The thing that I really love about […]

Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating  Divisive is as divisive is allowed to do, like the Presidential namesake in which split the United States of America 40 years ago, Liverpool’s The Sneaky Nixons have seemed to have garnered the same ringing endorsement in how to win friends and influence people. What should matter though is the […]

GOT a fancy for a foursome? Then get your hands all over Liverpool's seedy little treat, The Sneaky Nixons. The Kings and Queen of anarchy have been around the block a few times - locals may be familiar of their 'untasteful' graffiti all around the city. Starting out a couple of years back, 2015 see's [...]

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Space are back with a new single 'Strange World'. The band will also embark on an extensive UK tour of the same name throughout October and November 2015. 'Strange World' combines Space's signature sound with a Mariachi vibe, creating a record that could serve as the soundtrack to a David Lynch film. This [...]

  With a unique musical swagger and penchant for seamlessly melding and molding genres and styles as easily as one might change a shirt, The Sneaky Nixons are poised to have their indie flag saluted by global masses yearning for a change in the scene. Almost an “anti-song” the new track “Sex” is about against the [...]

Seemingly determined to make indie rock actually interesting, Liverpool’s Jimmy & The Revolvers go large on the chorus with “The Morning Paper” and, with smarter than average lyrics, their song stays longer in the memory than you might expect.  www.jimmyandtherevolvers.com Review date:   October 24 2015 Reviewer:  Bluesbunny

Louder Than War’s Ioan Humphreys interviews The Sneaky Nixons and reviews their new single “Sex” which will be released by Across the Ocean Waves Productions on the 20th November 2015. There is a rumbling… a disturbance in the force?…there is something afoot …something wicked this way comes… panic on the streets of London?……Nah its Liverpool to be exact.  A forthcoming […]

Cult Merseyside psych heroes The Wicked Whispers have been away for two years, time spent honing and refining their music. Those lysergic tendencies linger, but at the centre there's a renewed focus on melody, on the way that music and lyrics can interact. New double A-side single 'If I Set You Free' / 'Zodiac Girl' is the [...]

Barney Goodall is a part of Ocean Wave Productions, revealing his latest track ‘MASS’, earlier this week. Already receiving the backing from the likes of BBC Merseyside’s Dave Monks, Goodall’s hypnotic sounds and powerful ballads are captivating. The Londoner’s latest track ‘MASS’, brings out his political side, Barney said; “[It’s] probably one of the few [...]

Not a loss but not quite the full win either, last Saturday saw Ladies anticipated return to Studio 2 for the release of their new single. The show, essentially series of boys with guitars, had a slightly stilted beginning: sadly sparsely populated perhaps due to trying to follow last bank holiday’s bizarrely planned double festival. [...]

We have been waiting very patiently since their last single launch but Ladies have yet again come through with their new track Sometimes You’ve Just Got To Lose. The track begins with melancholy undertones then it progressively evolves into a serious head bop, a neck brace should be worn when listening to the combination of […]

Following on from last year’s reggae-infused It’s Like, the ambitious Ocean Waves project returns by sprinkling a jazzy feel over the Jamaican sound with Warning.  Last year, we interviewed Carlo Variola of Ocean Waves about the ongoing project known as the Ocean Waves Band – a cornerstone of what the label wishes to achieve. He described it as “a project with [...]

Collaborating with musicians from the afro-Brazilian Candomblé religion, Ocean Waves may be involved in one of the most interesting projects we’ve heard in a long time. Ocean Waves Productions initially built a reputation for alternative rock and indie: The Sneaky Nixons, The Shipbuilders, Jimmy & The Revolvers. But it didn’t take them long to move on to [...]
