Visit:



New Songs!
Available now!
In several genres, Ocean's songs showcase her vocal and songwriting range, some in soft rock, some Latinesque, and some R and B, others soulfully cosmic, some rad Trance Dance House music, instrumentals for soundtracks, and sassy rap and pop tunes too!


Ocean creates music that is transformative, her hypnotic vocals and ethereally beautiful sound in several genres provides cross-over hit songs for film and TV, performance and the CD or download-buying audiences of the world. The mutli-talented artist whose voice ranges through the octaves is a world traveler whose interest and love of other cultures has embued her music with a world feel. Exotic beats resound, world melodics that showcase her unique vocals and poetic lyrics enrich Ocean's songs

Ocean, singer, also writes songs and produces music. From trance/dance hypnotica to r and b grunge funk to smooth world jazz, the quality of her talent has brought comparisons to Sting, Robert Plant, Jimi Hendrix, Sade, Evanescence and others.

Her fascination with history, anthropology, psychology and mythology inform her lyrics and writings with a cosmic feel, and Ocean has penned a paranormal romantic thriller in the vein of Emilty Bronte and of Stephen King that is ready for 
publishing houses.

Ocean's upcoming CDs are in pre-production, and one is a trance/dance CD, one, a rustic Americana, another is of surf songs, one in the world smooth exotic jazz genre, and the other all ready to go into the studio is an inspirational CD with mesmerizing meditative and cosmic songs to elevate the soul.

Writing and Writers- Article by Ocean

Writers and Writing - Article by Ocean

 Most of us write something on something. Even if it’s raging graffiti or just angsty scribblings of expression or even stick-figuring to let your feelings vent most of us write. Even to stab at the ground with a twig is writing. Or even air writing to trace the stars at night. We primates are fingery and holdy about things in our fingers and our fingers are the routes out from the triggers fired off in the brain, so… don’t let anyone tell you he or she doesn’t write. We all do.

 And even before “writing” was invented, we wrote and talked and these noises and vocalizations somehow meandered through eternity fueled by our emotions and found a way out through those limbs down to the old fingers and the famous opposing thumb. Alphabets aside, thinking in words and pictures are the same thing since words stand in for both emotions and for pictures for places and events and for imaginary worlds and airy inventions that haven’t found creation yet.

 Writing is cool, essentially.All animals do it but maybe not as formally as we do.We’ve compartmentalized ourselves into a neat little package of beliefs that are unsubstantiated where we’re always the center of everything. The other animals sit around and wonder at it, I’m sure.

 Anyway, they all express themselves to. Throwing coconuts down onto a meanie’s head is as much writing as is a headline of the New York Times. Head-butting just as much writing as War and Peace.  And a crow squawking on a fence is as much writing as is 50-cent giving out with diatribes as is the Guernica as is Woody Guthrie twanging as is Hemingway’s The Sun Also Rises.

 Degrees are the only difference and I just mean – open your mind and notice what a weird thing writing really is, and how cool.

 That a feeling can find it’s way to being into the mind and clothe itself in a made-up picture and into a thought and into a word and into a way to communicate that word.

 Writing is the way out of a lot of things. The pen is mightier than the sword and so many wars and revolutions have been started with just a little written dynamite that the power of the word really speaks for itself – and loudly. Or softly.

 Even though people who never learn to read have way better memories than those who learn to depend on written words, reading still bestows a wealth of experience – a way of mind-reading and time-traveling and understanding that few of the ones who still don’t know how to read would not envy.

 To wield the pencil is to hold power in one’s hand, but to make abstract symbols on paper come alive is quite another thing. The magi among us, the shamans and shamanesses like, for instance, Toni Morrison, who’s captivating power of words ensnared me when I first picked up one of her books somewhere and read only a few lines can literally create worlds through words. Words that  literally climbed out of the page and coalesced into a vine, a living thing, strung with colors and images and wound themselves around my mind and my soul. She is a master.

 There are only a few real masters in, of, any element, and their charisma and skill is well beyond that of ordinary mortals.I want to commend them here. To honor and applaud them and to turn you onto them. Beware their wicked spells, because they really are capable of awesome things.

 Something is at work in our universe that grows out of a certain type of fecundity of spirit. Great writers and other artists have this and it’s far more than mere talent. And works have their own lives to lead. They express themselves. Who knows? Maybe they choose their own vehicles and not the other way around. It certainly feels that way at times.

 I like to write songs, but really, I compose music, and the melodies just sort of create themselves - they just appear in my mind.  And the lytics, too, sort of create themselves and I merely give them expression. Writing is fun on subjects I enjoy, and I don’t include myself in this secret tribe of shamen, by the way, and I advocate it for everyone. We can’t all be geniuses but thankfully we can all enjoy their artistry. I’m going to have this page for links to writings and info on some masters I really admire.

 I’ve gone into other worlds and have been transformed by the magic of many of these writers, so…I’d like to share the secrets of their existence with you. Some are ultra-famous still, others more obscure. I may not keep up with every writer on the new horizons but whenever a book falls into my hand, or an article, and when it begins a life of its’ own, unbidden, I know I’ve stumbled again upon a magician, so..

 I have so many favorite authors – too many to name, but I’ll spotlight a few here. Some are enormously known and some need to be recognized more.Every life is an adventure, and some of these heroes of mine led amazingly interesting lives. Without that sense of adventure, who’d want to read their ideas anyway ?

 The tedious lists of people writing even best-sellers who know absolutely nothing about life don’t interest me any more than do the makers of recipe films or music. In this day of blogdom, everyone writes who can grab onto a laptop. It’s no great feat to string words together in imitative ways or through formulas learned at school.The geniuses still exist, though, who can stir the blood of people seated in easy chairs.This gift is still a marvel, and I’ll focus on the ones I think should be applauded as I continue to find more heroes to exalt in this little Pantheon of mine.

It's Only Valentine's Now, So Why Am I Already Having Spring Fever ?

It's in the cosmic atmosphere.
I can just feel it.
Spring is on the way !
Even when, as I usually do, living in the tropics or in the sub-tropics at least, a type of Winter exists, but it's really more than whether the weather has behaved well or not, more than the cold factor - it's our planetary connection to the seasons, to the turning of our own orb, to the placement of the moon - at night, now, I can hardly sleep - the full moon has been reflected in my pool outside, and the double glow of moon and mirror has been so intense, plus the countless reflections of the sea, just outside - I sleep with the curtains drawn - I must know the night sky and the stars are in view - has made the most beauteous flourescent violet light !
So, just lying around and sighing, like some Romantic poet, has been my reaction of late, to the impossibly gorgeous days, with butterflies flitting around each other in circles, couples, in love, talking intimately, no doubt, about how wonderful life is, and newborn leaves coming in, and night-blooming jasmine spreading its' irrepressable charms through a perfume that lures us outside just to breathe it in heady draughts ! What must it do to the moths ?
Night and day, the spells cast by the early Spring is almost too much to bear !
Errands ? Put 'em off!
Chores ? For bores !
Just lying in the clover, gazing up at fleecy clouds is enough - for now.
Soon, the reckless, tumbling tumult of full Springtime will arrive, and even at a far off coast, I'll be thinking of the roar of mountain streams, rushing down through valleys and meadows of tender wildflowers, strewn in enormous blankets, along Colorado's hillsides, of buttercups emerging in wild fields all over the South, of Nesturtiums covering my homeland of California.
I miss it all. Does God use his power like I would ? Does He walk, unnoticed, among each and every country, enjoying His every flower - every field - every tree in blossom ?
Travel is the best we'll ever do. Traveling, and remembering.
Appreciate every day !
As my eldest Brother has reminded me - count the handsful of seasons you have had, and will have, if you're lucky. 
They're very few.
Enjoy this one !

To Care for All Animals IS to Care for Humans - by Ocean http://www.Ecoize.com

To Care for All Animals IS to Care for Humans

Some have the mistaken notion that to care for other animals is to not care about human animals.
Nothing could be further from the truth!
To care for all animals is to be compassionate. To be compassionate is to be Vegan, to o nly eat Compassionate foods.
To be Compassionate saves human lives from starving!
It's the ultimate win-win situation! 
To heal the whole of the planet, to save human lives, and to save animal o nes at the same time as we're healing our own individual bodies and spirits is to be spiritual!
All the same!


Human Rights are Allied with All Other Animal Rights

We haven't yet seen many articles having the human rights subject, 
and yet all of us are animals.

At heart, the issues all lead to the same thing - compassion is the only cure.

The animal rights activists stand very firmly on the compassionate 
issues for human beings too.

To be compassionate is to extend that compassion to every being, including 
those of our own specie.

We are all one.

There are many, many organizations that help humans - although none is doing enough. However - at the same time that they help, most are helping in ways that will not sustain nurturance of these hungry populations or change things, 
and they are doing so using cruelty measures that introduce even more problems and continue to ruin the planet's environmental systems.

We must stand up for many different issues all at once. Win-win situations heal.

We, as an animal rights activists, combine all of the compassionate measures into o ne overall healing measure, into o ne world plan.

The drive toward Ecoizing , toward Veganizing, toward Spiritualizing, and 
toward Humanizing is all the same drive, when viewed clearly.

The cure for the entire planet is compassion.

How? How does it lead to saving the starving people in Africa?

Compassion lets us understand that all these issues are vitally related:

Human Overpopulation

Solution - Being Child-Free and/or Adopting 

Ecological Issues

Solution - Veganizing

Spiritual Issues

Solution - Veganizing, Being Child-Free and/or Adopting

Health Issues 

Solution - Veganizing

How will these intertwine and save the world and suffering of all animals, including humans?

Eating compassionate foods means reclaiming the land now used for grazing by the meat industry, and farming grains and vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds organically.

Stopping pesticides and grazing and halting the meat industry will stop huge amounts of air, water, and land pollution, and growing grain can easily feed everyone o n earth.

Eating and living compassionately heals not only the spirit, but creates 
sanity and receptivity in the mind and the emotions, supplying adequate nutrition,
vitamins, and all the requirements of health for humanity.

This spirituality will open the doors to great rapport between nations and 
individuals of different cultures, and we will find solutions that bridge 
the gaps beteen the haves and the have-nots.

Adopting rather than bearing children will not o nly create a human population 
that the planet can live with, but it will create a spiritual enlightenment 
among people, and will take care of all the children that are now starving 
in the world.


Education and adequate birth control will help tremendously.

Vasectomies should be rewarded and popularized, for instance.

Also, read Eco Eat and EcoChildFree for more on this mandatory issue.

To do more than a band-aid-like gesture, and something to make the developed nations feel good, extreme changes will be necessary.

Every year, there is great need in many regions of the world for the human 
populations, and the Western nations, who traditionally used to send grain, 
now do not have the grain to send, due to the fact that the meat industry 
has taken over the land, the commerce, and the culture, and not enough people 
demonstrate that they care.

Also, as the humans continue to overpopulate, and as disease casualties continue to rise, those in the more stable areas continue to embrace apathy.

The problems are immense.

The cures are enormously challenging, and yet, if we do actually love humanity, the world, the other species, and ourselves, we will need to start right now 
to change the world, and choose to be Compassionate with our food!

    Wealthize by Ocean http://www.Wealthize.com


    Wealth comes in many forms.


    For instance, I always feel so rich when I am surrounded by my rescued pets.


    And I recall times when, as a child, I had wished with all my heart that 
    I could have pets that could be indoors, and as many as I wanted.


    I am very wealthy with pets, which makes me very wealthy with love.


    Most of us are very wealthy with many things – like, someone I know 
    is very wealthy with perfumes.


    Some are wealthy with cars, with tools, with collections of all kinds.

    Some are wealthy with a beautiful abundance of trees right outside.
    Others are wealthy with shoes, or books, or with popularity, or with long, lovely hair !


    Lots are wealthy with art supplies. What ? We can go to any store and find 
    them for a pittance, you might say, but think of the days when so many artistic 
    and struggling geniuses abounded who would almost have sold their own souls 
    for some good art supplies.


    When you learn to slant the angle of your view of life to include all you 
    have and have had, you’ll find that you are – and always have 
    been – wealthy indeed.


    Even the Pygmies of the Great Forest in Africa - who own next to nothing in actual items - know they are very lucky, and very wealthy. They consider themselves children of the forest itself, 
    and pride themselves o n acting in harmony with their provider.


    Can you imagine someone of the Western nations saying he or she was the child 
    of the plains? Of the swamplands ? Of the mountains ?


    Besides hippies, I mean. And Native Americans. And sages and mystics and cosmic people.

    Of course, any bohemian worth his or her salt agrees with this. And others. 
    Any surfer will agree that he is the child of the coast and the sea, for sure.


    Why not adopt this feeling, this claim, that you are lucky – that you belong in a world of abundance, and that you were born with wealth and will o nly live in wealth no matter what.


    One o nly has to recognize it. It really is – for most of us in the 
    West, at least, true.


    One should never compare o neself, except to find gratitude for o ne’s 
    position.


    The attitude of gratitude we hear about is the surest way to happiness and 
    contentment, therefore, to confidence, a feeling of safety, and the ability 
    to succeed.

    Don't you feel richer already ?
