A Monstrous Psychedelic Bubble Exploding In Your Mind

[Noj]

I downloaded the first two volumes of this Various Artists compilation by Amorphous Androgynous (of Future Sound Of London fame, apparently) from eMusic. Since I've had it, its weirdness has consistently drawn my attention in the random mode on my iPod. A tremendous compilation with incredibly strange and beautiful music. Highest of high recommendations from a compilation junkie.

Volume 1

Volume 2

There's a third volume I've yet to pick up, but I will be rectifying that shortly. Great stuff for someone like me who wouldn't know where to start with a lot of the odd prog/psychedlic stuff out there.

My friend DL'd the 3rd one from eMusic. He's always talking about it.

It's really a remarkable comp. I should add that although it is a mix, eMusic has the complete individual tracks. So it's way longer than what would fit on a CD.

[BFrank]

I don't see Vol 1 on eMusic, Jon, but I'm sure 2 & 3 will enough for a WHILE!

Just picked up on this thread and would echo the praise for these sets. There is also a 'Volume 4' which was compiled for the Mojo magazine cover CD. Equal in quality to the previous volumes IMO.
