"Psychic Sounds is very pleased to announce the highly anticipated
release of Corum's exotic trance score for his touring short film
Beguiling Isles: Born of Earth's Torments. Beautiful melodies waft in
and out of your consciousness like a humid island ether. It's a
travelogue, hypnotizing and also lulling. It's easy to fall under
Corum's island spells producing sweaty aural excitement and imagining
the "Specter of Polar Reversal", as described in the liner notes,
twinkling it's eye before the volcanic explosion of horns, drums and
keys lay down a lush rush of eerie tropical groove." psychic sounds
"This outfit has a distinctive
middle-eastern flair, occupying the Interzone, known to play with dream
machine, this time they had projections of burning incense, a cloaked
figure. Jefferson played clarinet with delay, White Gourd sax and the
same, with Corum laying down a Marrakesh flea-market beat, crunchy
distorted tape beats, like Muslim Gauze in his prime. They brought the
root down stomp, swaying like cobra charmers. The room was as full as
i'd ever seen it, everyone was mesmerized. The group consciousness
rayed and sparked like Quicksilver spray, and i was reminded, with
fresh eyes" j's heaven
son (es) de Oregon, pero a Corum me lo imagino viviendo en un paraíso de palmeras y aguas cristalinas. así suena este precioso vinilo color turquesa incatalogable y exótico, como casi todo los tesoros que esconde el misterioso sello psychic sound recordings: Million Brazillians, grupo en el que también colabora Corum, Celestrial Starway o el extraterrestre Bill Doob. Beguiling Islands es de este año pero podría ser otro de esos vinilos desempolvados de la biblioteca de Lunar Atrium, tan onírico, alucinado y difícil de situar en el tiempo. imposible no enamorarse, aunque sea por acto reflejo, sólo con ver los títulos y escuchar dos segundos de la cara a, pero es que una vez que te sumerges hay tanto y tan bonito... órganos y cánticos tribales afines a la locura desbocada de Sylvester Anfang, Pierrot Lunaire y Valerio Cosi, percusiones, sintetizadores y guitarras planeadoras que recuerdan a Emeralds, a Cetacean Nation, a unos Monopoly Child Star Searchers arabizados, saxos estratosféricos y flautillas con un poder de atracción que ya quisiera para sí el flautista de Hammelin, groove, psicodelia, hipnagogia... que en directo suena así de bien
