About
From the liminal desert landscapes of Bahrain, Osiris emerged, weaving a progressive rock narrative unlike any other. Their sound, a fractal interplay of exploratory riffs and sculptural compositions, reverberated through eight cassette releases. "Look Into The Future," released on Electronical Dreams in 1993, encapsulates their process-driven ethos—melding intricate time signatures with the warmth of analog tape. Osiris navigated the Bahraini underground scene with a fusion of influences, nodding to giants like Yes and Emerson, Lake & Palmer, yet carving their own niche—an intersection of sonic evolution and artistic independence. Self-released works like "Steppin" and "Journey to New World" reflect a commitment to craft over conformity, each tape a chapter in their auditory journey, a testament to their interdisciplinary approach. Their catalog, entirely tape-based, signifies a preference for the tactile, the tangibility of sound as object. This choice speaks volumes of their connection to the medium, their music a dialogue between past and future visions, echoes under the arc light of Bahraini nights.
