Sunglasses

Expo '70 is late night improvisations concieved by Justin Wright. He graces two sides of this 7" with his trademark dreamy kraut infused dronemusic - looped cyclical guitars, thick waves of smeared riffs and muted murky FX. A heavier, dronier take on Eno, Popol Vuh and Ash Ra Tempel. 'Sunglasses' traffics in glistening dreamlike kosmiche drift. A krautrock that is less about propulsion and rhythm and more about texture and ambience.

The guitars are warm throbs, long strands of reverberating buzz unfurl and float into the hazy ether. They are underpinned by a thick wash of buzzing synth which unleash a similarly disembodied sonic vibe. Like floating in the vacuum of space, everything weightless, untethered and drifting lazily through the inky blackness. The light of stars and suns bends and twists, slowly cycling through the visible spectrum, disobeying all laws of physics, wrapping you in a thick swirl of sonic brilliance.

Trancending energy from light' is as dark and dense as it is dreamy and effervescent. Crumbling chunks of distortion break off like chunks of ice and float weightless in a sea of deep corrosive buzz, pulsing and undulating, shot through with streaks of melody, layered and textured, looped and hypnotic and tranquil, a sea of glimmering harmonics and deep drifting tones draped in reverb and delay and allowed to unfurl into softly propulsive rhythms, and spider web-like textures infused with subtle melody and blurred burnished shadings.
