| january 2012 release ; ... wow ; did not see this coming ...
right heres a pitch-perfect reissue of peter thomas 1975 golden ring library orion 2000, which stands (along with the 1970 erinnerungen an die zukunft - aka prιsence des extra-terrestres - aka chariots of the gods soundtrack) as his finest moment, encapsulating a bizarre approach involving a full-on psych band, a full horn section, and puncuating electronic embellishments (that always seem to pop out at the most inopportune moments - listen to the sound-sample) ... killer record !!! |

orchestra peter thomas:
orion 2000
the 'holy grail' of kraut-space-funk
the highpoint of a career that boasts the legendary space patrol (raumpatrouille) and chariots of the gods soundtracks, peter thomas orion 2000 is a near-mythical release that was only ever pressed in miniscule amounts as a german library lp (in 1975) and has never been available commercially before now.
drums pound, basses buzz, horns flail and star-maidens wail. berserk electronic and musique-concrete effects collide with manic energy. there is nothing on this world (or any other) that sounds like the blaxploitation-kraut-jazz-in-space sound of the orchestra peter thomas.
remastered from the original master tapes and presented with exclusive liner notes, the original artwork, four extra ultra rare tracks and rare photos.
the star-people have, at last, landed. |
