An album that has remained off the radar until
now, Mar Vista’s Lo-Fi progressive home recording ‘Visions’ was pressed
in a quantity of 200 copies with blank sleeves and sold locally in
France. Influenced by La Monte Young, Ashra Temple, Popul Vuh, Terry
Riley, Tangerine Dream and others, the album plays as two side long
songs, with side 1 being a suite of 6 songs intertwined with the use of a
four track.
One hell of a trip, it stands as one of the more interesting private press albums we’ve heard from France, and another release originally pressed at the Le Kiosque D’Orphee pressing plant (look out for our upcoming Julien Grycan reissue also).
The CD comes with 2 long and killer bonus songs; Crash ‘73 which was influenced by early Soft Machine, and Sykthetik Way, a recording from ’78 influenced by artists like Klaus Schulze and is limited to only 500 copies. One hell of a trip, it stands as one of the more interesting private press albums we’ve heard from France. ~ lita
had this kicking around forever now, hesitated cuz spelling of name on album is different than website. change it to whatever you want. pretty great album.
