Release Notes:
Deep Magic means many things to many people
(two seconds of internet research reveals one
of those things to be a Chronicles Of Narnia
ôfanlisting collectiveö), but to us and many
So-Cal dwellers it means the solo orb of
Dreamcolour drummer/figurehead Alex Gray.
Since fragmenting out into his own DM sphere
with two self-released tapes, GrayÆs grasp of
spatial composition and celestial cloaking
devices has matured and expanded into a totally
unique stargazing expedition worth its weight
in ether. Solar Meditations is what it sounds
like: 90 minutes of deep-sky holistic crystal
healing. Melodic clouds of keyboards, chiming
guitar, tubular bells, field recordings, moonlit
piano, and amplifier gauze all shimmering down
across stop-motion images of suns rising and
vanishing into the Pacific. This is music for
observatories; endless and nameless. Pro-dubbed
tapes in double-sided full-color fold-out J-cards
designed by Amanda. Edition of 100.
