Astral Magic- Experiences in Hyperspace (Astral Magic Music ASTRAL030)

Santtu is back with his 7 release of 2023…. Wow… This is 11 tracks for spacey rock music, with Jonathan Segel providing most of the guitars as well as Violin. Jaire (Octopus Syng) plays sitar on All is One and Drone of the Universe.  The opening track is a quite melodic and reminds me of some of the more poppy Dark Sun stuff in the vocal parts. All is One is a very cool piece with violin, sitar and a very nice spacey vibe. Great song. Humaniods in the Night is a bit more electronic with the drum rhythm and bass. Really nice guitar lines. The vocoder part is different. Drones of the Universe is an instrumental track with sitar and E-bow guitar parts. Lots of synths.. Three Suns Rising is beautiful track with many layers of synths and sounds. Golden Towers is a mid paced track and sounds like a lot of other AM tracks until the instrumental section. Mission MU is very experimental and features Marc Paskvan on spoken words. He is also featured on Transmission Lamdba (track 10). Nocturnal Visions brings some groove back and some very nice lead synth and guitar work. Going Down slows things down and features a very laid back vocal. Still keeping things spacey!!!  The Valiant closes this space and rock music adventure with a more uptempo track but nice melodies as well and nice lyrical story! Release 30.. Wow… Impressive..   Check it out on bandcamp. Limited to 100 Copies on CD.
