Starfish and Giant Foams is a collection of wayward songs, new material and previously unreleased compositions; odds and ends that flow with a cohesive intention to gently coax the listener inward on a journey to imaginary yet parallel worlds. This album marries the past and the future for Hipnotic Earth. Making music here in California in wine country inspires me to tame the harmonic waterfalls and streams of melodic clouds that pass and compose the hours, days and years of our listenings and ongoings; ever called to creativity and patiently dipping into the elixir of life, the magic of music and all that is good.

This is a record that flirts with many and different colors revealing newer sounds for the project. There is Dogstar which is a reunion and delves into a deep love and kinship with rhythm and bass as sparse dubby effects weave within the etheric ambient vocal featherings sung from another language by Taressa Bell; an angel of a voice who adds her own dimensions to the pieces (also heard here on the older unreleased track Rasa). Dogstar was recorded in Oct 2019 and I am full of joy at the result and is a direction I long to explore. There are also nods to a settling static slow-motion sound, tastes of sweeter trance inducing and calming drones that make it so easy to summon concentration when listening: elsewhere, rare and slight sprinklings of piano timbres dance vaguely with harmonic drift. Moon Walk is a brighter meditation, another older experiment with sounds that called for the light of day and the call here is now answered.

Something new. And eclectic. Somethings old. Something newly colored. And something blue. I hope you enjoy these tracks as much as I do.

HIPNOTIC EARTH - Dogstar (Feat. Taressa Bell)

Extensa Vita

KURMA, in Sanskrit, means ‘tortoise’. According to Hindu mythology, during the great universal deluge, countless treasures were lost. In an effort to recover them, Deities and Demons joined forces in order to upset the cosmic ocean. Vishnu, known as “The Preserver”, took on the form of a tortoise, and submerged into the depths of the ocean. On his shell he carried a mountain and coiled therein was a great snake that shook the waters, creating such chaos that would in turn bring about renewed order.

One year after their first release, Michael Sarian and Olec Mün present their new EP, KURMA. Having settled into a shared musical language created in synergy, the two eclectic musicians create a universe in sound to tell this tale of chaos and order, inherent to creation itself. As in their first release, MAKARA, Mün sets the terrain with synthesizers and sound design, giving Sarian a canvas on which to paint with his trumpet and FX. This collaboration transcends genre and invites all to listen intently, navigating the different emotions the music inspires.

KURMA releases on the 8th of July on digital format featuring artwork by Celia Bayo.

Lost Tribe Sound proudly introduces 'In The Octopus Pond', the first album in a series of album from Arrowounds, titled, the 'Therianthrope Series.' With previous works, Ryan Chamberlain has taken us through personal lows and bleak watery worlds in disrepair. However, 'In The Octopus Pond' sheds much of that skin and sets course for lush, green environments steeped in the bizarre. That said, this new material sounds more accessible than ever. The first entry in the trilogy draws from a range of musical influences, Can, Bark Psychosis, Young Gods, Slowdive, Durutti Column, Seefeel and much of early 4AD.

Rather than tackle some inner monologue or global crisis with the album, ITOP is instead accompanied by an obscure short story and visuals just as fitting. As both Arrowounds and LTS would prefer to take some time away from heavy realities and make up our own.

For here it begins and circles back into itself…
In the days before the great boil, the earth was lush and green, cared for by a race of mystic octopoed. In acts of preservational instinct, many chose to build their temples high on top of engineered tumuli, weary of prior flooding and wildfires that drastically disfigured the landscape. It was here that these priests of arms who carved ornate reliefs into the great pillars of obsidian and bone, dug down seeking mineral deposits in the earthen abyss and found a gestating world beneath the below... to be continued

Blood city refers to Khorramshahr a city in south Iran which was constantly bombarded during the Iran-Iraq war for eight years.
After so many years the living situation has not improved and they also had a recent clash with police for their very basic right which is having clean drinking water
