Doctors of Space - Adventures in the Deep Seas of Sound

 Doctors of Space Music (DOS-007)

 

Okay, another new album by Doctors of Space (Dr Space: synths, Fender Rhodes. Mellotron, Hammond, mix & mastering, Dr Weaver - drum machines, synths, bass, electronic & acoustic guitars)! Dr Space things this is their best yet and I must agree. At least it's the most coherrent and worked on.

This 60-minute album is based on three jams by the duo. Dr Space then recorded short synth interludes, then Dr Weaver added guitars and bass and afterwards Dr Space mixed it all together during several weeks. The mix also includes some gong samples from Luis Simoes from different (OSC) recording sessions.

The albun is divided into four parts. "Part One" is mostly hypnotic, repetitive space rocking. "Part Two" sees the duo going into electronic trance music direction, it gets rather danceable, but still very cool and spacey. And hypnotic! "Part 3" starts off in a peaceful, bit experimental way. Trippy stuff. At six minutes we get a funny rap/funk beat and the track gets pretty groovy! Sort of surprising way to go but I enjoy it. "Part Four" is clearly the shortest at under 10 minutes. It's an relaxed ambient ending with some more intense sounds layered on top. Very nice! Stops very suddenly, not sure if intentionally or by mistake. Just 100 copies of this made so get it fast.
