Charolastras are a group of experimental electronic musicians with a keen interest in ancient rituals involving dance. In many cultures from the past, music and dance were closely tied with shamanism, spirituality and even combat. These traditions continue today in some parts of the world where music isn't solely for entertainment, as is often the case in our modern Western society. The group's goal is to spread a message of peace and unity with their music. This intention is evident in the blissful ethereal textures used in their mellifluous productions. But their sound can also have a harder edge that evokes conflict, not calm. This is all by design because, as Charolastras like to point out, 'sometimes you have to fight for peace'. 'Entheogen' (“generating the divine within") builds from a faint murmur into a delicately woven bed of syncopated electronic parts before being anchored by sub bass. Thunderous drums then penetrate the soundscape and the track takes off. What ultimately manifests is a timeless hybrid of Schooly D, Orbital, The Future Sound of London and Jon Hopkins. The legend that is A Guy Called Gerald rarely ever remixes other people's material. So it's a real privilege that he's broken with tradition and created a dark, bass heavy version of Entheogen for Blackout '77. His tough minimal remix is aimed straight at the dance floor. Charolastras' label mates Unknown Unknowns have also delivered a remix which retains the melodic feel of the original but blends it with their own contemporary style.
