Mondial Toboggan releases “Oceanos (SOS)”, the second single from their forthcoming album on Whales Records.
The story behind the track
Off the coast of South Africa, August 3, 1991. The MTS Oceanos is taking on water. The ship's captain orders evacuation and leaves. Among those who stay is Moss Hills, a musician hired to play the onboard shows.
Few musicians have had their finest moment mid-shipwreck. Mondial Toboggan wrote a song about it.

“Turf in USA”: how Mondial Toboggan wrote a French racehorse into a track
Garden State Park. New Jersey, 1988.
Ourasi, France’s most beloved trotter, crosses the Atlantic to race the best American horses.
In the stands, nobody doubts it. He won’t lose.
Sugarcane Hanover hadn’t read the French papers. Ourasi lost.
That defeat became a song.
