Invisible Inc bring out their second compilation EP, this time vaguely focussing on the interzone between cosmic disco, balearic house, psychedelic “glam rock” and seedy, tribal, dungeon acid.
Legion of Light spark up the A-side with an uplifting nod of respect to the house sound of Skandinavia reminiscent of Todd Terje, Lindstrom, Prins Thomas et al. Legion of Light are two veteran producers of tech-psychedelia who claim Lakeside Sunrise features the very same Roland Jupiter-8 synth that once belonged to their childhood heroes Hawkwind. A2 sees Glaswegian duo Delta Girls groove onwards with some rather nice dubby guitar-laced beach party vibes
The B-side opens with an obscure nugget that takes things further out there: the appropriately titled Inner Path To Outer Space, an 8-minute voyage through what sounds like innumerable synth patches, fuzz guitar, swinging bass and shuffling drums recorded live at Rimini Psych Festa in 1983 by prog rocker and virtuoso synthesist Claudio Cremonesi ably assisted by the ever-changing line-up of his Gruppo Cosmico. A real gem!
After Cremonesi's sonic mastery the closing track can't possibly live up to expectations and even seems slightly out of place, musically. Half African, half gothic, it's a dark sleazy acid soundtrack to some form of sinister nocturnal perversions, judging by the title. Definitely for fans of weirder stuff....if you like the sound of TB-303s mixed with guitar feedback, tribal percussion, guttural growling (??) and muted trombones this one's for you.
