a golden cosmos of psychedelia weaved by joshua burkett




FIXED THE LINK NOW IT WORKS SORRY

yo. here's today's shit:

this is Joshua Burkett's cd entitled "Gold Cosmos" and this one is a real hum-dinger. some of you may remember Joshua from his work with Tower Recordings, others from his collaborations with Sunburned Hand Of The Man or Kemialliset Ystavat (on the essential "By The Roots You Shall Know The Fruits" comp). This cd is amazing, a veritable who's who of players (MV, Ben Chasny, P.G. Six, Dredd Foole, Chris Corsano, Matt Moran, and others!). it's full of appalachia, psychedelia, and raga. the tracks are spectral and smokey, full of ethereal almost gone vocals, loads of effects treatment, and every song is amazing. this is one of my favorite cds of this style, it really is hard to top this one. if only there were loads more of Joshua's work out there for our consumption, this cd (which was released in 2001) is one of his only solo releases.

get this gem right now. astral projections for an astral mind.
