Ollie Olsen ‎– Emptiness [CD] (1999, Psy-Harmonics)

Ollie Olsen has produced much innovative music in Australia. Studied electronic music mid-70s under Felix Werder, a German composer living in Australia who had studied under Karlheinz Stockhausen. In the late 70's Ollie formed Whirlywirld, releasing a number of recordings on Missing Link Records. During the next ten years Ollie formed experimental outfits Hugo Klang and Orchestra of Skin and Bone, then the hard-core industrial techno band, NO. 

In the 1980s Ollie was invited to be the music producer for the movie of the same titled compilation album 'Dogs In Space'. He provided much of the soundtrack himself, including writing the hit song "Rooms For The Memory" for INXS front man and movie's star, Michael Hutchence. After a brief collaboration with U2 on the single 'New York, New York' by Ecco Homo, Ollie was approached by Michael Hutchence to produce an album with him. The result was 'Max Q'. Ollie also worked at this time with American producer Todd Terry and UK producer/DJ Paul Oakenfold. 

From the success of Max Q came a major record company deal and Ollie formed the band Third Eye. The group made one album before Ollie decided to concentrate on instrumental electronic music. Thus the label Psy-Harmonics was born, with the Third Eye's LP 'Ancient Future' as the first release. Ollie had a role as A&R for the Psy-Harmonics label, also producing a great deal of work for Psy-Harmonics. He has collaborated with other musicians on such projects as The Visitors, Antediluvian Rocking-Horse, Psyko Disko, Fluro Conspiracy, Higher Spin States, Assassin Device, Shaolin Wooden Men, and many others. His own album, 'Emptiness', explores Ollie's roots in avant-garde / experimental composition. [SOURCE: DISCOGS]
