Comment:

The Valisian Psycle: An ongoing series of mixes inspired by (and in Tribute to) Valis; a means of saying "thank you" for his tireless promotion of present-day psychedelic music and for the numerous psychedelic publication recommendations he has made during the time I have come to know him.Another in the series, seventeen more acts worthy of (re)investigation. Though a number of personal faves are represented, the real joy in putting this together were the addition of some "new-to-me" artists, which came as a result of my perusing Psychedelic-Music.Net Yet another recommendation by Mssr. Valis, the Psychedelic-Music.Net introduced me to an abundence of today's lesser-known (but well worth getting to know) psychedelic acts. Scenic, Aspera Ad Astra & Donovan's Brain are three examples (amongst MANY found throughout this series), which FULLY reinforce the fact that artists are continue to explore new ground, while tilling all that is right with the classic late-60s/70s psychedelic movement.Hope you enjoy.

Enlightening though at the same time daunting, as you yet again serve to emphasize I know even less than I thought about this fantastic genre. Hence it's not just the artists who, "Continue to explore new ground." Merci beaucoup for this one Chris.

A continuously fascinating box set from which this volume - and prior and subsequent volumes come from. A mindblower actually. Has to be seen to be believed. Thank you 'Gnome!

Very cool. Like most of your mixes, the ones I know are consistently good so I want to hear the ones I don't.
