Epic synthpop. Warm, huge space, and memorable.

Back in 2020, I made a career change and pursued culinary. Last December of 2022, I switched restaurants and got the chance to become a sushi chef. I wrote this album over the past year as my journey as a sushi chef.

OMAKASE. What does this mean? Omakase is a Japanese word and it’s literal definition means “to be left up to you”. Usually this term is associated in sushi restaurants which offer an Omakase-style dinners where the sushi chef makes anywhere from 10-20 single bites for you to try. They tend to contain seasonal or locally acquired ingredients. It's considered one of the most luxurious offers in the culinary world to attend a high-end Omakase dinner.

I decided to concept and create a whole album around sushi and what i do for a living. Lots of repetition and back-and-forth beats to simulate what I experience when feeding customers on a daily basis at my sushi bar. I am constantly writing beats down when I get home. This album is literally the inside of my brain while being a sushi chef.

anyways, I present to you my 4th album release, Omakase.

Cheers,
Michael Weber

A Need For Something

The third in this set of Bandcamp EPs finds Honey Smugglers at Bark Studio in Walthamstow in the Autumn of 1990 during initial sessions for a follow up to the `Listen' EP. As it turns out we recorded a different set of songs for the `Closer' EP in early 1991.

Each of the first three songs were longstanding stage favourites and could be heard in most Smugglers setlists. `Anybody But You' embodies the Smugglers groove as well as any of their tunes and check out the spontaneous studio magic as Steve kick starts the piece on an Organ with a mind of its own.

`Pie In The Sky' appeared in live form on an album recorded at The Sausage Machine in Hampstead, (`Now That's Disgusting Music') but this is the studio version. In a gigging situation we used to see how long we could extend the gap in the middle before people would start clapping, but here....just an uneasy, digital silence.

`Beautiful People' was played in a number of arrangements throughout the band's career, this perhaps being the best and most concise. The improvised vocal coda at the end by Chris assures this version's place as first choice. It was a first take vocal.

The final track `Whole Wide World' was a unique cover version which was only ever played this once. It was part of a planned Fiction Records sampler which never happened. It didn't even cross our minds to play it live, great song though it is, I guess we had too many of our own songs vying for position in a setlist of ten.
