Oscar hasn't got a lot of clones. It would be quite senseless to try to
imitate him, because his style is mainly based on musicality. Sounds are for
Oscar like colors. He uses his drumsticks as brushes and his drumkit like a
palette. Like in painting, tiny touches of color in bigger,
colour-contrasting planes make the difference. For that reason Oscar has
toured and recorded with some of the top names in the entertainment
industry. The likes of David Byrne, Jaco Pastorious, Arturo Sandoval, Eartha
Kitt, Marlena Shaw, Margareth Menezez, Paul Barrere (Little Feat),George
Porter jr (the meters) T Lavitz (The Dregs) Ira Sullivan, Nestor Torres,
