GHOSTANDTHESONG conjures a saturated psych-lo-funk/neo-surrealist-punk sunshower, the perfect cooldown for a squelchy joyride through woodland creeks canopied in summer sunset. Before nightfall, find a spot to lie back and let crisp autumn riffs and ritualistic rhythms of the rolling river cleanse your heavy heart and hazy mind. With the cold creeping closer, come back to consciousness and follow the siren to shelter.

Priv4te Records

Based in Berlin this incredible label specialized in official reissues of cosmic music from the late 70's and early 80's gives the possibility to find some rarities in high quality vinyl pressing and beautiful packaging. Since two years they have released some of the best German space music (I should say Germanic speaking countries) like the great Christian Bruhn "Captain Future" LP or the fantastic Intergalactic Orchestra "The Super Nova"  Album. The next release, Asso "Do It Again" LP comes from Italy, the disco country! This album was unreleased in 1982/1983 thus it is very exciting to know that this pearl of the italo-boogie 80's will be after all available in a killer production! All pressing are limited to 500 copies. Better hurry if you want a chance to buy them.

Releases

369.000 Christian Bruhn Captain Future – Original Motion Picture Soundtrack
369.001 Ayisha – Space Man

Artist of the Week : Lazer Crystal


Synthesized Chicago LAZER CRYSTAL is a musical node comprised of three humans and various mechanisms. Listening to their songs is like sending your mind on a trip around the universe.

In fact, singer/keyboardist Mikale De Graff says he hopes the disc, titled "MCMLXXX", takes people to a mental place where you can’t be in the physical world. And he says it’s OK for people to see Lazer Crystal as a riddle: “I think the puzzle is a good aspect of what music or art or conversation or whatever can be,” says De Graff, 30, a Kentucky native who has lived in Chicago since 2003. “Clarification is always nice too, but a little mystery can go a long way.”

Their music sprawl across Krautrock, Italo-disco, prog, and noise, and in keeping with those influences their payoff isn't in pop hooks so much as it is in really intense vibes. Even without much foreground melody, the music has a focus that Lazer Crystal's early material lacked—something De Graff and Read say they achieved by giving in to their electro and house fandom.

IN SHORT:
Lazer Crystal believes that we as humans are at the extreme promontory of the centuries. The human race has reached the moment where we must open the mysterious shutters of the impossible to seek the unknown. We are moving beyond Time and Space toward the absolute, since we have discovered eternal, omnipresent speed.

OUR MISSION:
1. To create music that reflects this ideal.
2. To present a multi-colored, polyphonic surf of sound and vision, set to the ritual nocturnal vibrations of its arsenal, to be played as an offering of respite.
