“Four jams were recorded ranging from Miles Davis inspired (Afterglow) to Grateful Dead (Dinner) to heavy space rock (Freakout). It is a hell of a 2hr musical journey.”
Madmess – Madmess (2019)
“Madmess is a Portuguese trio. They carry in their luggage the famous “Porto Fog”, a dense haze, colored with psychedelic sounds with 70’s lightning and punctuated by heavy thunderclaps. They deploy their magic fog into the room to take the entire audience on a journey from the edge of a rugged desert beaten by the winds to the outer edges of distant galaxies.”
Hibushibire – Turn On, Tune In, Freak Out! (2019)
“Hibushibire is a Japanese hard psychedelic freak out rock band which formed in 2012… A band name “Hibushibire” is Japanese old porno slang which is meaning as freak out orgasm.”
Elder – The Gold & Silver Sessions (2019)
“Capturing Elder’s expanding dynamic and ongoing progression, The Gold & Silver Sessions is an experimental LP of ranging psychedelic jams that captures their expressive and nuanced development in a way a “regular” studio release wouldn’t. This is still the band who put out 2017’s crushing “Reflections of a Floating World,” but here you’ll witness them following their imaginations in an entirely new direction.”
Automatism – Into The Sea (2019)
“Automatism is a Stockholm-based improvised rock band. We search for moments when music plays itself without effort and try to capture them on record.”
Lamagaia – Garage Space Vol. 1 (2019)
“Heavily kosmische and kraut inspired rock from Gothenburg, Sweden.”
Ashinoa – Sinie Sinie (2019)
“Ashinoa is a krautrock dementia that fans of the genre will recognize. An artistic atavism in the footsteps of the post-Stockhausen generation, a kind of round table of geniuses Klaus Dinger (Kraftwerk, Neu!), Edgar Froese (Tangerine Dream), Schulze (Ash Ra Tempel)… but also a kosmische musik of modern times, with a touch of electronic influences in the most experimental way.”
Junzo Suzuki & Snakes Don’t Belong in Alaska – The Ascended Master Teachings of Junzo Suzuki and Snakes Don’t Belong in Alaska (2019)
“This is long form psychedelic rock which has many extraordinary acid-kraut-rock moments which are futuristic and retro. Not for the faint of heart as the music goes there and back again leaving a trail of cosmic debris which sparkles like diamonds in the sky.”
Psychic Lemon – Freak Mammal (2019)
“Psychic Lemon Freak Mammal is a space-rock odyssey with long compositions with dense guitar effects, synth, bass and live drums. These songs are like rockets ripping through the atmosphere.”
Acid Rooster – Acid Rooster (2019)
“Acid Rooster is digging deep into the well of far-out psychedelic rock and has created their own dimension of this mind-expanding vibrational brew.”
