| ...one of those records that i’ve seen on ebay a number of times but never gave a second-thought about because of the “new age” connotations... but here, on disc, listening to it in depth in comfort: damn!
there are a few really nice pieces on here! namely the close-your-eyes-and-its-fennesz chord-wash of “angel play”, the muted drones of “cloud prayer”... and in fact any of the pieces over 4 or so minutes: they all seem to dip your toes in a magic lake and, by the time your knees are wet there’s always something really interesting going on (there’s even a ~5 minute jam called “bubble massage” that consists of nothing but recordings of water bubbling all overdubbed atop each other!)
not to drone on and on about this, but with its beautiful gold-embossed bookletry this is yet another high-spec space-out from em that yields a pretty damn unique listening experience... |
