DT
are a Dutch band and this is the first release on the new Greek Label, Cosmic
Eye. The material on this LP has been previously available on the bands web
site, where I had listened to it several times. The band has made 3 releases on
bandcamp but this is the first on vinyl. There is 100 copies on dark red vinyl
and 200 on black. It also comes with a A1 size poster that is very cool. Astral
Sunset starts the record off on its hypnotic and heavy trip. The music is
mostly just heavy guitar, bass and drums but at different times, organ, didgeridoo,
flutes, floating vocals, enter into the picture. Very spacey and trippy at
times. Mind Journey raises the intensity level as the trip becomes darker and
more dangerous.. Lucky, you get a break as you need to flip the record to hear
To the Holy Mountain! It starts with some backwards parts over the bass line
that goes on for several minutes before the drums kick in and the haunting
psychedelic voices creep into the picture. The guitar slowly takes the lead as
the track just keeps drawing you in further and further from your reality. Space
Raga ends this amazing space trip.
Fans of Lamp of the Universe, Dark
Budda Rising, and BONG, will dig this band…

Some friends in Colombia with a stoner-rock radio show played one of Ayahuasca Dark Trip's other pieces the other day -- "Manantial", I think, and I thought it was really cool. The "ethnic-meets-space" vibe is very nicely done. Gonna check out more of their stuff!
