Listening to this is indeed like a journey to the centre of the earth. It's epic! You get 4 sides of ambient drone gear spread over a deluxe double LP which is totally lush looking. It's on the Sonic Meditations label if that gives you any insight as to what you're getting here. It's a totally intense spaced out dronefest which if you're a bit chonged-out will be as close as you're gonna get to floating in space. It's completely psychedelic on that front and if you're into the current wave of synth-tastic retro music experimentalists this will totally bone you up. In fact the more I hear of it the more I'm being sucked into what's going on. Fans of the more sparse Emeralds tunes etc. will lap this up. Edition of 500 double 180 gram audiophile vinyl housed in tip-on sleeve. Minty!
The 2006 epic heavy drone suite. Deluxe 180 gram audiophile virgin vinyl housed in gatefold tip-on jackets. Mastered for vinyl by Pete Lyman of Infrasonic Sound.
"Center Of The Earth is the sound of the sky buckling, the galaxy fracturing, of being sucked into some mysterious other universe, a subterranean world beneath our visible existence, murky and turbulent, a darkness impenetrable except for a few swirling swaths of grey light, quickly tangled up in the dark, the endless drift into a black hole, the sound a reverberating whir" - Aquarius Records (San Francisco)
"With all the mystique involved in this form of unmusic, cover art and artwork will often be taken as clues to the intent of a work (especially now artisan packaging and cover art is firmly a part of the experience of consuming music.) Here Wright suggests some aesthetic link or inspiration from geology or space. But to spend ones time searching for clues to the secret of obscure art would be a waste of time." - Foxy Digitalis
"...straight from the planet's magma soul..." -
