Mantric Muse – Mantric Muse (2012)

2012 Denmark Mantric Muse space rock 4 Comments

“If you are into music based on a totally free and non-restrictive approach you could choose to spend a few hours with the new untitled CD from the Danish band Mantric Muse. All the songs on the CD are made from a large catalogue of jams, which have been mapped, dissected and then re-created into parts. The different parts have afterwards been rearranged towards whole songs. Hereby, the base and the structures of the songs avoid most formal rules and fixed concepts (except the overall concept of organizing jams). The band tries to maintain the special freshness – the here and now – of the jams in the songs, so listeners can sense the present vibe of the original jams in the songs. Normally Mantric Muse describes their music as music for neural travelling, and potentially the songs, which are all instrumental and also quite long, crafts a short break from the everyday life. Recommended för fans of ÖRESUND SPACE COLLECTIVE, OZRIC TENTACLES, VESPERO.”

Troldmand – 21.10.11 (2012)

2012 Denmark krautrock space rock Troldmand 2 Comments

“Picking up where 1970s psychedelic warlords Hawkwind left off and taking their cues from both the speed gurus of the noisy Tokyo underground and the endless groovy jams of the German krautrock scene, Troldmand navigate the field of doomy riffs, frantic guitar solos and psychedelic sounds. This five-piece orchestra is on a never-ending journey to challenge your perception of the cosmic infinite… Recorded live at Loppen, Christiania in Copenhagen, Denmark on 21 October 2011.”

Yatha Sidhra – A Meditation Mass (1974)

1974 Germany krautrock psychedelic rock Yatha Sidhra 2 Comments

“The first intention was to create a dreamy musical landscape where the Moog synth, the flute & traditional “percussive” instruments play an important part. Seen as a concept album, “A Meditation Mass” is almost exclusively instrumental. A long suite divided in two themes with two variations for each one. A beautiful and ecstatic musical journey. Their sound oscillates between “pastoral” folk music, spacey rock with the addition of discreet jazzy accents.”

Ra Can Row – Ra Can Row (1982)

1982 psychedelic rock Ra Can Row space rock USA 7 Comments

“An instrumental band from the USA that predates the space-rock boom of the early 90ies. Built around guitars, throbbing bass lines and a solid drum drive, moog synths and electronics, enrich with a spatial feel four lengthy improvised spacerock jams, strongly reminding the experimental side of DJAM KARET. Through most of the album RA CAN ROW move from rhythmic space jams to slow moving, multi-layered, out-there rock. Absolutely mindblowing music from start to finish.”

Pyramidion – Hail! Pyramidion! (2010)

2010 krautrock psychedelic rock Pyramidion UK 5 Comments

“Five headed druid jam band from glasgow the portal to your cosmic place is rainbow bionic man… these guys are total rockers. Its difficult to know exactly what there gonna sound like cus its all jammed out, but expect music along the lines of acid fried fuzz drenched psych and krautrock boogie… Glasgow’s answer to the likes of Ash Ra Temple and Amon Duul II, made up of various heavy hitters in the Scottish experimental scene with members of Boom Edan, Moon Unit, Scrim, Cheer, Lanterns. Expect tantric vibrations, whale calls and a thunderous rhythm section through some full on psych explorations. A rare chance to catch this supergroup in full effect jaja.”
