    Angel'in Heavy Syrup

    Biography :
    Although guitarist, producer, and theorist Jojo Hiroshige is one of the leading figures on the Japanese noise music scene, his protégées in the all-female quartet Angel'in Heavy Syrup could not be further from the sort of extreme noise terrorism Hiroshige is best known for. Their quiet, meditative music is clearly influenced by the gentler side of '70s Krautrock and progressive rock; think of the gentler moments of Can or Gong, made even more ghostly and delicate by the group's low-key instrumentation and gossamer vocals. This is music in constant danger of becoming so airy it might drift off into the ether, were it not rooted by subtly polyrhythmic drums and hand percussion seemi ... Read more »

    Not to be confused with the new Japanese band this  Birmingham collective recorded their only album in 1970, which displays a lot of  influences. West Coast US acid rock, early progressive music and folk all rub  shoulders on this polished album, originals of which are now highly sought after  by collectors.

    Great Airplane like male/female  vocals..

    Kensington Market - 1968 - Avenue Road

    Tracks:
    1 I Would Be The One
    2 Speaking Of Dreams
    3 Colour Her Sunshine
    4 Phoebe
    5 Aunt Violet's Knee
    6 Coming Home Soon
    7 Presenting Myself Lightly
    8 Looking Glass
    9 Beatrice
    10 Girl Is Young



    Yes, Kensington Market were one of the most well-respected groups on the scene in late-1960s Canada; yes, this album came out on a big label (Warner Brothers); and yes, it was produced by a major figure, Felix Pappalardi, then hot with Cream. This doesn't mean, though, that this is anything more than a very ordinary late-1960s rock LP, leaning towards the gentle pop/rock side without being too mainstream. In keeping with the times, a lot of attention was paid to varying the styles and arrangements, from airy-fairy pop-psychedelia ("Looking ... Read more »

    Label September  Gurls
    Released 1997
    Time (minutes) 58
    Musicstyle Psych  Folk

    Discolor is the solo project of Stefan Lienemann alias Limo of Shiny  Gnomes and Fit+Limo (supported by friends on moog, cello, violin). Combination  of new space travelogue with Fit+Limo folk sensibility. Songs expand into  pastoral, multilayered guitar landscapes. Solar distortions, white noise  acoustics, hypnotic sitar-driven Eastern Kraut dub and chamber string drones  create a deeply psychedelic space trance experience. Album ends with a  beautiful, haunting version of Beach Boys' "In my room." Discolor shows  influences of new UK/US/NZ space rock/drone scene (FSA, Jessamine, Amp,  Montgomery etc.), which in itself is influenced by Kraut Rock of the 70's, so  the circle closes...

    Entheogens - 1995 - The Gnostic Mass

    01 The Dance of the Priestess
    02 Fire At Will
    03 IO Pan!

    The Gnostic Mass (XMLP-8 1995)

    Recensioner:
    "Two long oriental esoteric jams with sitar, flute and percussion. This is a really psychedelic party where almost all of Xotic Minds members contribute. The improvisations that were recorded at Adam Axelzons home and at the Babalon Bar in Stockholm reaches orgiastic crescendos, especially the "Io Pan”, a primordial invocation to Pan, with polyrhythmical structures that grows and grows. Reminds one of such masterpieces as "Seven Ate Sweet” or "Taxim” by the mythical Kaleidoscope (USA). The Entheogens LP is a cleansing dip in a oriental acid dist ... Read more »

    Dutch Power-Pop Pioneers


    A great collection of some of the most appreciated Shocking Blue recordings. All their hit singles are here, as well as lesser known songs from their various albums, recorded in the first halt of the 1970`s.

    Though "Venus" was their only international hit, a lot of these songs had the same potentials. Songs like "Never Marry a Railroad Man", "Mighty Joe", "Dream on Dreamer", or "Out of Sight, Out of Mind" could have been equally big hits, had the wind blown in the Shocking Blue direction, when they were released.

    Guitarist Robbie van Leeuwen had an unique skill for writing catchy pop-rock tunes, and their music still sounds fresh and appealing today.

    The arrangements are mostly the ... Read more »

    "Unreleased recordings from obscure Ohio band with 1970 45 on  the same label as Morly Grey. Much of this is actually modern recordings,  nevertheless about half of it is enjoyable sinister psychrock with a late Doors  vibe." (AcidArchives)

    "World In Sound presents another group that  represents the late '60s, early '70s heavy psychedelic era scene in northeast  Ohio, USA (the same region that Dragonwyck is from). Having won the Starshine  Productions' 'Battle of the Bands' in 1970, the five-member Freeman Sound was  established as the most popular of several bands (including Morly Grey), that  had records released on the Starshine label. This special collection of original  songs and sounds is an exciting bit of rock history that doc ... Read more »
