‘SPIRITUAL CELEBRATION’ OUT NOW ON NOT NOT FUN!

May 20, 2009 · Leave a Comment

There’s currently a glut of bands dog-paddling around the trans-continental psych-pond with names involving words like ‘color,’ ‘dream,’ and ‘infinity,’ and Ventura County brass-groove arkestra Dreamcolour are smack thick in the middle of this ’08-‘09 nomenclatorial zeitgeist (though to their credit they use the British spelling). Yet, semi-ironically, the mood of the zones they explore on Spiritual Celebration are wonderfully vintage, with a strange, reverential “out of time” quality that seems decidedly non-NOW. Hand-drums beat along with a steady, easy lope, saxes are crooned (not skronked) smoothly up towards the sun, Farfisa trills further brighten the corners. There’s no damaged FX-abuse or lo-fi freakouts; all minds are fused into one gently simmering open-air spiritual jazz homage. Echoes of Don Cherry abound. The tape is split into three chapters: a stunning 20-minute A-side hayride (“Spiritual Celebration”), a briefer horn flurry piece (“Sun Ritual”), and a gorgeous lunar meditation chamber (“Moon Ritual”). A great West Coast force with an exotic back catalogue and a killer live vibe, worth keeping tabs on. Pro-dubbed cassettes in cases with full-color marker/collage J-cards designed by Amanda. Edition of 100.

SPIRITUAL CELEBRATION, WHITE LIGHT & NEW ALBUM + SHOW

March 24, 2009 · Leave a Comment

Hello,

We have 3 releases in the works! They’re going to be heavy records… We’ve got 2 tapes & 1 cd-r coming out very soon.

Spiritual Celebration C40

A spiritual celebration featuring many guest collaborators. Side 1 begins with a group groove. A cosmic vibration groove for the spirit. Side 2 starts with a voodoo jazz punch and concludes in the quiet peaceful place you go when at your most transcendent. Spirit love and peaceful tranquility.

White Light CD-R

A blues/folk/soul inspired combination of improvised sessions. Natalie Alyse lends her lovely voice to assorted grooves, Robert Magill adds some death-folk and the rest weave a psychedelic soul.

New Tape (Intermission for Triangle Theories c20)
Not sure how much I can really say about this one yet, but we’re recording it this week. A transcendent affair.

Keep on the lookout here:

Also we have a show at the Echo Curio in L.A. on May 30
