Explorations In Music is a promoter who organised a series of gigs at North London venue The Hideaway between 2014-2015. We played there Jun and December last year.
They have just released a compilation which is a collection of eclectic choices of great bands who played there. Now it is available for free download from BandCamp.
The great news is that one of our songs HOPE are on it. We are so happy…..
Please do check it out.
Thank You!

We are very sorry that we haven’t had any updates recently. Just because we both have health issues at the moment. First Neil got pneumonia and then Masa got it recently. We both affected by pneumonia……..oh well….Really sorry that but we still need a little more rest before we fully start as O-ARC.
We had a really great time playing at Hundred Years Gallery Saturday 14th May. Huge thanks to Tolerence Manoeuvre for inviting us and Graham and Montse from Hundred Years Gallery….
Another great news is that our EN album is now available from Hunred Years Gallery….what a great bonus!
Tolerance Manoeuvre who creates cinematic atmospheric experimental music asked us to team up a gig at Hundred Years Gallery. We were so happy when they asked us because we love playing at art galleries. ( We did Whitechapel, ICA, and Tate before) Hundred Years Gallery is a nice little art gallery near Hoxton. It has a cosy cafe space where you can relax reading a book..browse art books and music cds too. It’s a wonderful gallery and we will be playing at basement space.
Tolerance Manoeuvre is a absolutely brilliant trio with so much creativity. We are so excited to share the stage with them! We can’t wait!
We filmed this by ourselves for our beloved event space Nitehi Works in Yokohama , Japan. Unfortunately this space is closed down now and there were special events over the last weekends in March. The film was projected on the screen during the event on Saturday 26th March.
Whenever Masa went back to Japan he did a solo gig there and he always had a heartfelt time with a lots of supportive people for both O-ARC and Yokohama creative scene. It’s a shame it had to go but we totally believe Minoru Inayoshi who is a founder of Nitehi Works (also an artist) will continuously lead Yokohama creative scene The great news is that he had already found an alternative space and had already started working on creating new event space there. We truly admire what Minoru has been doing. We are extremely happy that if we could be a part of Yokohama creative scene from a far…London somehow.
