Question: Looking for music by the original Ozma.

I want to listen to music by Ozma.

The catch: I don't wish to hear the band from Pasadena that sounds like Weezer clones. Instead, I want to find music by the experimental outfit consisting of Mike Metlay and DAC Crowell that self-published on Metlay's label, Atomic City Records.

Sadly, the existence of the other, far more popular band is like a great burst of chaff to my Google homing missiles. I can't track anything down. So I turn to the great and mighty OzMeta for assistance.

Is this the right Ozma? A Huge and Silent Place

There's a link there also to the Atomic City Records Site.

Seems like the duo split after making Huge and Silent.

Arqa's link contains some track samples from the album, and this podcast contains some Crowell stuff that's similar to his work with OZMA. (Or so it seems to me, a person who isn't terribly familiar with ambient music).

If Arqa's link is correct, you can listen to the full album through rhapsody (which has a free version where you can listen to 25 songs per month).
