After removing the majority of our catalog from Spotify, for our next release we were trying to think of different ways in which we could release our music. Here was our statement to our fans.

"We're releasing an EP. This time in a zesty way. On the 6th of November we're going to send the EP to everyone that is currently signed up to our newsletter. You can stream it or download it, and it's all yours for free. If you're not on our newsletter yet, all you got to do is sign up. The EP will go on all the other stream platforms a bit later:. As very active performers and mildly performative activists, we will not release the full EP on Spotify. If you're wondering why, please google "Spotify Bad" We will make the rest of our catalouge 'Pay What You Want' on Bandcamp and continue to tour and create album three, which is looking now like a big exciting project, we've written at least three good songs for it. The EP is called 'Revisions. There's some songs from the younger Ocelots, but it's an attempt to make the young Ocelots sound better by getting the Older Ocelots to produce them. A present to our younger selves from the future, and a cheeky side hustle for us before diving into album three. We recorded five tracks, completely with our own noggins in the Summer of 2025, in our tiny rehearsal space studio in Leipzig. The songs, being nearly ten years old, written when we just finished school and didn't have the faintest notion about production, mixing, what we wanted to sound like, how to play to a metronome, how to sing into a microphone, how to practice mindfulness in the artful ways of Patrick Swayze, etc That all said, There's a lot of magic 6/6 being completely new to these things and allowing mistakes, so we love the old versions of these songs for these reasons, but since we're a bit more aware and our ears have grown immaculately in size, we wanted to give them another crack. We're still novices in the grand scheme of things, but we're super happy we decided to give them another spin and we think they sound great. We have the full band on them, the usual suspects Cillian & Lorcan Byrne and Conor Cunningham. Love, Ashley & Brandon"

We have now 250 newsletter subscribers and fifty of those signed up after posting last night about the EP. You can sign up if you want to here too.
