Reviews: "Dark, hallucinatory outer space mind-music punctuated by samples and sequenced synthlines (in) an impressively constant state of flux -- alternating stasis and motion, optimism and foreboding -- which makes them rewarding subjects for active listening. Ahead of the pack in creativity and the ability to pilot a serious journey." -- LISTEN.COM Influences: All our favorite science fiction tales and movies, ghost stories, horror fiction, John Serrie, Klaus Shulze, Brian Eno, Willis O'Brian, Ray Harryhausen, Forrest J. Ackerman, H.P Lovecraft and other genres & artists too numerous to mention. Selections from the albums "STRANGE EON DRIVE" and "STELLAR WRECKAGE" albums largely inspired by author Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's short story 'Dead In Irons', which concerns the passengers and crew of a luxury faster-than-light ship -- the 'Babel Princess' -- which gets stuck (presumably forever) in faster-than-light mode. It's a chilling little slice of sci-fi horror from a 1978 collection of hers titled 'Cautionary Tales'. Plus excerpts from works in progress ECHOEY POINTS MINE, OLD GLORY DOWN, BECALMED IN AMBER, GREEN CATHEDRALS, BLUE CATHEDRALS, OLD LIGHT-ROTTEN LIGHT, THE ABSENT PROCESS, THE CHILD IS BEING BORN, AND SLUMBERDRIVE. Quotes from Listeners & Reviewers: "Incredible stuff." ". . . another stellar find. A shining star." "Immerse yourself in the space age music of Lovecraft's Adjectives and one of two things will happen--- you'll either have an outer body experience or a panic attack as you wait for the aliens to show up at your door! Beautiful yet eerie all at once, as each song creates a wonderful sense of imagery. A must for the avid new age listener. Intoxicating!!! " "Some absolutely awesome ambient space music." "First class." "A great short break from the craziness in the world." "Sheer ambience." "Very immersive and deeply evocative of 'the cold dark cracks out between the stars'. Nice fodder for twisting the mind into itself. Even the more rhythmic bits have a sense of 'things unnatural' to them." "Absolutely amazing work." "Chillingly yummy." "If you're looking for oldskool ambient music, you've just found it. This pair of musicians makes some of the best atmospheric ambient music I could find." "The masters of outer space." MORE: BECALMED IN AMBER: "Man, this is pure bliss - I love it! Please do a long version (eg 20MB worth! LOL)" PARALISYS 'THE LONG NOW': - "A beautifully unsettling piece with a cold lonely ambience to it that is absolutely irresistible. Be sure to visit this band's page and check out their work." -- UNDERWORLD "Menacing minimal ambience...its pulsing shell punctuated with chilling suprises." Electric Zero Radio 'AMONG THE FAR STARS': "Steve Roach would be happy to meet this guy. This is the closest I've ever come to actually feeling like I was in outer space. Ambient and soundscapey... black canvas with tiny white dots. Great song." Zero Nine 'THE LISTENERS': "A flight on gossamer wings." THE GEM IN EYE RADIO "What innovative electronic music is all about." TURN ON, TUNE IN, SPACE OUT RADIO. 'JUNGLE NANITES': "Tonal play. Odd inception, but grows into a curious piece well worth listening to. Often." -- FILTERED(for curious minds)RADIO. 'HULLBREACH': "Another frightening mesh of sound, song, and sample..." FILTERED(for curious minds)RADIO. 'MAROONED' "Perfect ambient piece. There are some who like the longer songs... Seeking out the songs who taunt the six-minute barrier... And when a long piece works, it's a Good Thing. But I'm the guy who goes the other way... The song that comes in, makes a statement, sets a mood, and exits gracefully (without dumping core). This is one such piece. LoveCraft's Adjectives is adept as such things." FILTERED(for curious minds) RADIO. 'ECHOEY POINTS MINE': "Take your time listening to this song... Absorb it, and you'll be rewarded with some clever rhythms and intricate details." FILTERED (for curious minds) RADIO. 'THE BUG FARMERS OF PARSAT B': ". . . not only a long piece, full of trippy sequences, and spacey melodies... but it a busy little tune... full of stories and emotion... a mini-mind-movie. It really puts me in mind of one of my all time favorite composers... Mike Oldfield." THX1138. 'UM,' : "This is the first time I've heard your stuff...and I think to myself, "WHERE HAVE I BEEN?" Lovely experimentation here. Nice cacophony of voices at the intro... Oh man!! I love your shit! It's so surreal. Yummy. This is like an epic soundtrack to childbirth...Inspirational stuff. " FUGU.SAN Eden Fair 5:27 One beautiful, yet unsettling listening experience! The string section in the last few minutes...breathtaking! Brian Eno..watch your back! DB Melodious & sublime. THX SWEET DREAMERS - "Beautiful, absolutely beautiful. I get chills down my spine and the hair on the back of my neck stands up when i listen on headphones." -- TIMECONTROLLER -------------------------------------------- "Suspended motion, delicately balanced in time." MORPHYX 'The Child is Being Born': "Nightmarish! "This is one creepy track, complete with distorted narrative, and various other treated human voice samples. The backdrop for all of this is a smorgasboard of strange synth washes, and noise. Well Done!" DB(Crelm) Umm, actually, quite scary. I'd like to think of this track like an abstract painting, different at every look, you can look forever even if you dont like what you see. IN A BUNKER WITH THE ANTI-CHRIST More Lovecraft's Adjectives - In a Bunker With The Anti-christ review by stefan: "Starting off with something similar to a rhythm, soon this piece transforms in a floating field of pure energy. It threathens to explore or burst, but stays contained in itself by the pressure of the air surrounding it. No, it's not air, it's water surrounding it, and you are there, under water, listening, watching the spectacle before you unfold. Sometimes, the energyfield shifts almost invisibly, at other moments it threathens to overwhelm you with it's energy. But is keeps it's place, never ever you or any other living creature in the waters surrounding it. At around 1:45 before the end of the piece something starts creaking. it's your submarine, not the energyfield. It breaks open. You're surrounded by water. You can't breath. And then there's nothing anymore. You can feel the water surrounding your body, but your mind is somewhere else. Somewhere heavenly. Could it be? Is it...? No." The intro evokes images of going down into the bunker, and then hearing the muted bomb blasts going off overhead. It then turns into some weird underwater ambience(To me anyway..it sounds like scuba noises..and there's a tiger growl in there too! An underwater tiger!!) Now we are above water..with the foghorns of the ships and the clanging of dingies. Then it's back into the bunker, with more bombs, but something's not right.... This is some seriously image provoking weirdness!! Best song I've "seen" all week! Classic Lovecraft's weirdness! DB Man this is pure excellence - awesome dark ambient. P. Now I check it... live fields recording loops, I love them... the dark ambient goes his long way, I enjoy the trip... hypnotic dreams starts... I am sitting in the waiting room of an emergency, alone; the air is so dense there are no reverbs of any kind and the bells jingle plays in my head; I watch my arm on my knees, it is no longer part of me, will it ever be again? i touch the armless shoulder, it's bleeding, but blood is white like milk, like a mechanical oil; there is a door in front of me: "operating room", the noises like deep slow voices and sounds come from there, is it a chance? i need to know, I stand up and walk weightless through this dense air to the door with my arm under the other... "... a charcoal face bites my hand, time is sweet, derage and disengage everything..." Pierre Simone * * *
