Following their cover of Terry Riley's 'In C' Acid Mothers Temple & The Melting Paraiso UFO have come up with a series of new compositions loosely based on Riley's concept. Though the key scales represented here (In O, In A, In Z, In Infinity) probably have no real baring on the final pieces. You'll be pleased to hear that this is another classic collection of Acid mothers super psych jams. Again, this release is a sprawling epic that probably needs more than a few minutes to digest but from what I've picked up on so far 'In O to Infinity' is a majestically spaced out adventure. Very much in keeping with tranquility of the depths of outer space it will no doubt excite and submerge in equal measures. Kinda got some krautrock vibes in there too. Worth noting that this is the first Acid Mothers Temple record in ages to feature the golden vocal tones of Cotton Casino. The vinyl version has totally uber-RAD artwork that is vastly superior to the stupid CD version. You know what you gotta do.
Acid Mothers Temple follow up their classic cover of Terry Riley's In C. This is also the first Acid Mothers Temple record in a long time to feature the voice of Cotton Casino. Double LP is limited to 1000 copies and is pressed on heavy duty virgin vinyl and packaged in a tip-on style jacket. Released to coincide with their North American tour Beginning with their cover of Terry Riley's "In C", AMT went on to create "In E" and "In D", as well as their collaboration with Ultrasound on "In G". Now they return to the concept, with four new tracks - "In A", "In Z", "In 0" and "In 8". As far as music is concerned, a scale could be anything. The names of the scales from A to G are no more than conventions, decided on through human logic. However, beginnings and endings, nothingness and the infinite are not conventions or human creations. Rather they are part of the cosmos and they can be applied to all things that exist. On these pieces they follow their belief in this truth, journeying from beginning to end, from end to beginning, from nothingness to the infinite, and from the infinite to nothingness...
