Shining Lotus - Mountain Magic















SHINING LOTUS - MOUNTAIN MAGIC
private press
1986

beautiful washes of bliss water and harp feelings with some howling wind and organ meanderings on the a side. b side is a more pastoral affair with bird song choirs and more oceans with organ/synth trance outs. an astounding and super rare tape!

all thanks due to and welcome our brand new contributors at leaving records!

Upper Astral - Skybirds























UPPER ASTRAL - SKYBIRDS
THE MUSIC OF HIGHER CONSCIOUSNESS
valley of the sun publishing
1982

descending deep into the valley of the sun. another absolute gem of a tape by upper astral. first side is an uplifting and triumphant journey full of marching pianos, synth arpeggio swirls, seagull & waves field recordings and even some vocoded vocals! second side mellows out into a more droney territory with electric piano and field recordings. INSTANT CLASSIC! enjoy!

"The voices are saying, "up, up, higher, higher, fly with me". They are projected in the same chord and frequency as the music, but only your subconscious hears them."
