On Right Here, Right NowOur Oceans unveil a brighter, more exhilarating sonic landscape while maintaining the evocative emotional depth that has become their hallmark. Inspired by the "bright quality of the now," the band from the Netherlands crafts a richly layered musical journey filled with lush harmonies and uplifting atmospheres. The album captures the vibrancy of the present moment, blending intricate musicianship with an infectious sense of optimism.

"After finishing [previous album]  While Time Disappears, I knew immediately that I wanted to create something lighter and more uplifting," comments band leader Tymon Kruidenier"'Golden Rain' was the first song I wrote with that intention, and it perfectly captured the vibe I was aiming for. It was also the song we jammed out the most as a band, not only to refine the arrangement, but also to develop a production template for the rest of the album. With that in mind, it felt only natural for it to be the album’s opening track."

"I’m incredibly proud of our previous album, but it’s a bit of a bitter pill to swallow," continues singer and guitarist Tymon Kruidenier"This time around, I also felt the need to return to the creative philosophy behind the first Our Oceans album: simply letting things flow. Instead of steering the process or clinging to preconceived ideas of what the music should be, I wanted to trust in an open and unrestricted creative approach, allowing the songs to take shape naturally. It all started with the chorus for what became the album’s first track, 'Golden Rain'. From there, everything came together in what felt like one effortless flow state that lasted for a month or two. I think this resulted in a collection of songs that feel balanced and cohesive, yet diverse and playful."
