The Pleasure of Loosing
*70 copies limited edition. 2023 stock* "I'm not sure if its the usual narrative when people speaks about Giovanni Donadini musical alter ego Ottaven, but at leats for me its important to mention his past which is tied to italian hardcore punk band called With Love.

Oscar's House
*  Edition of 50 * Jungle Gym Records presents "Oscar's House", official label debut of legendary Italian experimentalist Ottaven.
