Arthur Radio Transmission #23 w/ Prince Rama of Ayodhya

At the center of a wind tunnel, we find ourselves stuck between perspectives. Is the world moving at a million miles around us, or are we the ones who are flying? This week, join hands with Hairy Painter and Ivy Meadows as they plunge into the unknown, fortified by Prince Rama of Ayodhya‘s ancient primordial howls, growling synthesizer moans and consciousness-melting pulsations, which swirl like electrified streams of sonic debris in the positively charged atmosphere… “Give yourself. Lose yourself.

Phoenix Records ASHCD-3013

UK vendor Volcanic Tongue sez:

“CD issue of what’s regarded as the most perfectly realised of the collaborations between the post-Far Out Far East Family Band and visionary Kraut cosmonaut Klaus Schulze. Recorded in 1976 on the back of Schulze’s classic Black Dance LP, Parallel World is a beautiful trip on hand drums and percussion through wiggy keyboards that leave sagging after-images across the jet black backdrop, droning vocal chants, outta space grooves and the kind of gorgeous choral synth levitations of the greatest devotional Krautrock, all cut up with long passages of semi-silence, sunrise tones and hallucinatory folk melody. One of the holiest of Japanese Kosmische sides, this one sits comfortably next to Popol Vuh’s In Den Garten Pharaos and Sergius Golowin’s Krishna Von Goloka as a truly epic trip. Listen to this one on headphones and feel the silence. Numbered edition of 1000 copies. Highly recommended.”
