Flight Of The Urubus
Entheogenic
Universal SymBiosis, 2008

FLIGHT OF FANCY PHAZESHIFTING SOARS INTO PSYDELICSPACE

very pleased to inform you that the new Entheogenic is out and it rocks!

there was some chitchat on the net about
a new sound for this duo of psyberwizards, but i think what has happened is that Helmut Glavar and Piers Oak-Rhind have forged a new musical relationship that is the result of the world travelling that they have done recently and
a reassessment of their own work to date.

i can confidently say that this album will silence all criticism that Entheogenic has fallen off from the top of the game. this album proves it. they are better than the recent Twisted releases. their shamanic authenticity is only matched at
this point (to my mind) by the Waveform artist, Phuture Primitive.

the previous release, Golden Cup, was experimental in some ways and also the result of their being away from each other for a pretty long time while separately visiting spiritually powerful locations world-wide. on top of this, the album before that, Dialogue Of The Speakers, consisted
largely of remixes in which other artists expanded some Entheogenic ideas and Glavar and Oak-Rhind needed time to digest all the wonderful ideas that had spun out from their music on that album. the album *before that* was Spontaneous
Illumination, which is a near-perfect electrodub disc. all these things combined resulted ultimately in Golden Cup being perceived as a less successful release (as so many transitional albums.) and after a while, my assessment was
that Golden Cup primarily had the disadvantage of the artists being apart for so long.

On this current album, Flight Of The Urubus, the amount of time and care spent on it shows brilliantly. Our heroic duosages have created a work that can be proudly placed
next to DOTS and Spontanteous Illumination.

The signature Entheogenic sound has never been crisper, funkier or more flamboyant. They've incorporated acoustic guitar plus some
tasty electric guitar work of their own device. Astutely recognizing how FAR OUT !! the piano work they've incorporated WORKS REALLY WELL. the synthesis on this disc is inspired and passionate.

there are moments when the stereo field gets so densely deep with psychoelectronic patterning and the overall mix is so gorgeously sensual that
the resulting thrills that course through one's body are nearly erotic!

it's almost like you have your own satchel of
spice from the sandworms of Arrakis!

All this technical stuff aside, the tunes are just plain FUN! most would get the most laggard amongst us out of the seat onto the dance floor. the vibe is strong emotional positivity. at the same time, as on other albums, each song is like its own Ayahuasca tryp, zinging us through fantastic realms of innerspace filled with scintillating swathes of multicolored light and wild jungles of floral complexity.

this is the most FUN i've had listening to psyambient electrodub in a long time!!
