“In Sept 2023, the band gathered once again in Portugal and laid down 13hrs of magical music over a week. There was a lot of experimenting and many ideas flowed. These two pieces of music were very special and meditative in someways. Umma reminded me of 1970 Pink Floyd in many ways, thus the title. Birim Magic, starts with Tito and Hasse playing the African instrument, Birim-bau and then heads off into its own universe over the course of over 40mins. This is a very spacey musical adventure and totally unique in the bands catalog.”
Moonseeds – Moonseeds (2024)
“In the year 2018 the australian psych-rockband SEEDY JEEZUS was doing their european tour. After the tour their guitar player Lex Waterreus spent some days at the home of Komet Lulu and Sula Bassana (both back then of ELECTRIC MOON), and what would be nicer as to record some jamsessions. Three longer pieces got recorded and Sula did some editings and mixings.Then some years passed by…In late 2023 Lex visited Sula at his new home after another SEEDY JEEZUS tour and they did some spare overdubs and finished the album.”
Seedy Jeezus with Isaiah Mitchell and Tony Reed – Tranquonauts 2 (2024)
“After the release of the Tranquonauts debut album in 2016, which was spawn from from conversation between members of Seedy Jeezus and Isaiah Mitchell, we are on the precipice of the second instalment in the journey that is the Tranquonauts, which this time includes Tony Reed… Seedy Jeezus booked a studio in Melbourne and the following day they met up and locked themselves in the studio and jammed for hours …. recording random thoughts ideas and just playing where the music went, with no expectations, except to have a blast and enjoy themselves.”
Causa Sui – From the Source (2024)
“On ”From The Source”, Causa Sui’s first new studio album in four years, the band has created some of their most ambitious music ever – simultaneously travelling through the sonic landscapes that has come to define the group’s sound and pushing towards new horizons.With the four bandmember’s ties to jazz, experimental and ambient music, Causa Sui is something of an anomaly in the ever-growing European psychedelic rock scene. Always following their own path. Never before has the group’s wide ranging influences been more meticulously weaved together as on ”From The Source”, from groovy Zamrock and electric jazz to floating post-rock, Sabbath riffage and hypnotic kosmische.”
Shem – Sheol (2024)
“Unearthed from the archives of Shem to commemorate our 7th year in existence, these recordings mark the first beginnings of a continuous journey into the depths of musical experimentation, rhythmic meditation and cosmic trances. Performed and recorded on June 3rd 2017.”
The Cosmic Dead – Infinite Peaks (2024)
“A new record from Glasgow-based space rock group! Infinite Peaks is the long awaited ninth full length album from tumultuous Glaswegian astral travellers The Cosmic Dead. The album features two extended incantations recorded and mixed at Glasgow’s 16 Ohm Recording Studio. Their exploratory compositions often reach levels of sonic destruction through reflective repetition and visceral harmony.”
Temple Fang – Live at Krach am Bach (2024)
“In the summer of ’23 we hit the european festival circuit with a new drummer, Daan Wopereis, who had stepped in for Egon on a very short notice in June. There was really no time to write anything new so we’d decided to take a few oldies we hadn’t played for a while, rework them with fresh parts and energy and just go and wing it. On August 5th, we headed down to Beelen, Germany to play a festival we were very much looking forward to, the wonderful Krach am Bach… What ensued was what can only be described as magickal, audience and band melting together in one steamy ritual of psychedelia.”
Full Earth – Cloud Sculptors (2024)
“Cloud Sculptors is the debut album of the experimental Oslo based rock-quintet Full Earth. With a deep connection and love for minimalist music, especially that of Terry Riley’s organ works, heavy stoner rock ala Sleep, High on Fire and Elder and the electronic avant-garde, the Full Earth-sphere circles in on fuzzed out riffs, sonic experimentalism and noise music.”
Trigona – Isophase (2024)
“Isophase, the third instrumental album from Trigona, is now available on vinyl. Spread across six tracks, the album is tight and punchy, while still having plenty of space for weird, swirly, reversed, and multi-layered guitar and synth tracks. Heavier in places than the last Trigona record, Isophase blends influences like Neu, Acid Mothers Temple and Spiritualized to give the listener a 42-minute psychedelic road trip.”
Psychic Lemon – The Unheimlich Kingdom (2024)
“It is the band’s darkest yet, full of unrelenting repetition and piled high with dense slabs of sound, a total contrast to the sounds of their self-titled debut… It is a grim, powerful record and perfectly encapsulates these dark and, quite frankly, depressing times. It is the sound of a band rallying against the status quo and simply stating “enough is enough”; a true reflection of a dystopian future that has already descended on us.”
