Departure Lounge
Announcement
Fluctuation strikes, the clones AKA Caitlin Beta & Plumaris who have been performing on vocal and gyrations duties over the past few years have departed and escaped from the sickening vile plasma that has held them in its grip in to pursue other goals in life.
The open void where they once stood and once filled so admirably is now in a state of flux. We await the vast mechanisms of chaos and order to randomly fill this void...in what form as yet we do not know but suffice to say the plasma drives will continue to turn.
We thank them for their allegiance and live performance energizing and wish them both glowing futures.The notion that change is the fundamental nature of reality imposes its self on the fabric of Omnia once more... Evolution and mutation time!

Omnia Collectable!!
In the March 2009 Issue of 'Record Collector' Omnia Opera were listed in a special 'Space Rock' collectable's review written by Ian Abrahams. Apparently the first vinyl release by Delerium Records of the self titled 'Omnia Opera' album is now fetching £60 out there in the world. There were only ever approximately 2000 copies made and this explains its rare status. Personally we think your mad to pay that much for it. But it none the less it is rather flattering and a sort of moment in the bands history worth marking. Below is the review as it appeared in Record Collector
(page 68)
"Helicies Fold" is born "Partially Aware"
The Omnia family has many friends and one such friend is "Ade Scholefield" former synth player of the Omnia Opera. Ades input and creativity into Omnia Opera cannot be overstated. He provided a seminal part to the original sound of the band and was a founder member whom without which Omnia would never have been born. Since those heady days Ade has gone his own way and like Omnia has recently rejuvenated himself musically. Spending the last 18 months writing and recording for his new solo project "Helices Fold" and the new Album "Partially Aware" which was released October.2008. "...a cringing acoustic before a tsunami of maddened electronica..."
Ade has set up an independent record company "Squalor Records" to provide a release vehicle for this new album . The album has been entirely written and composed by Ade Scholefield and combines electronic digital mayhem with analogue jam into a synthesised block of chaos and beauty. There are guest vocals and Sax from Sarah Smith (Now Jones, don't ask!) of infamous "Cardiacs" fame. Bass from Dan Watson of "The Transendance Experience" and vocal collaborations from Captain Bagley and Andy Jones from the Omnia Opera. Helen Radcliffe, Helices Foldette also makes an appearance on the Album.
All the relevant details can be found at the "Helices Fold Website" where it is also possible to listen to the entire album online. How Cool is that.! Check it out if your not afraid.
