To celebrate our 4th anniversary, HiT2k brings you a rush of
releases from all over the musical map, but never within the
borders of the mainstream! Why not take this time to try
something new, and peek in the strange dark corners of music
where so many are afraid to? Many thanks to all the groups and
kindred spirits who've supported us and taken chances!
One of four Popul Vuh reissues from HiT2k for you -- all
remastered with bonus tracks!
Released in 1974, EinsjΣger & SiebenjΣger (Earth & Sky) is a
further rock entrenchment for Popol Vuh. Florian Fricke's piano
is more percussively present with its runs and large chord
voicings rippling throughout each composition. In addition,
Daniel Fichelscher's electric guitar picks up where Conny
Veit's left off, taking the bluesy space rock solo style into
new territory by incorporating Eastern scales into the main
body of his blues phrasing. There are five short compositions
on the first side, which merely prepare the listener for the
mind-blowing title cut, which takes up the entirety of side
two. Here, in addition to the swirling organic percussion and
pianism of Fricke and the loping, often singing guitar lines
that repeat hypnotically with rock & roll tension, the vocals
of the amazing Djong Yun become the catalyst for the other
musicians to spiral off into extended improvisations. This is
certainly one of the most beautiful albums Popol Vuh issued in
the 1970s, and remains a watermark for their trademark of
melding beauty and free-flowing composition.
