“Fantastic! The ghost of a late ’60s, early ’70s Pink Floyd is all over the album! Absolutely trippy!! ~ Timemazine.
After a five year hiatus solo artist Astral Son returns with the neo-psychedelic treasure trove, Mythos. Eight surrealistic sound-paintings, sprinkled with kraut, acid-folk and electronic flavours. Mythos is a free flowing, blooming, ever expanding, multi-layered listening experience. Tapping into the mysterious sounds of the late sixties and early seventies, each song is a world of its own, reaching out for far regions of the mind, dissolving time and space…

Multi instrumentalist Astral Son decided to spend one year for ‘Wonderful Beyond’ to evolve and grow. Pursuing his path of space rock, acid folk, seventies electronics and etheric eastern vibes, he managed to create an authentic new album. A warm tapestry of sound with songs that flow into one another, creating a dreamlike state. Reaching out to the sheer beauty of the psychedelic experience and colourful surrealistic visions. ‘Wonderful Beyond’ is the follow up of the incredible trilogy ‘Gurumaya’, ‘Silver Moon’ & ‘Mind’s Eye’. In this album you will find many connections to the trilogy and way beyond.

Second album and follow up to the highly regarded debut ‘Gurumaya’ by Dutch psych and space master Astral Son. One listens to ‘Silver Moon’ as a concept album with beautiful well constructed psychedelic songs blending into each other…
“A colourful soundscape like a fleet-footed dancing monument made of warm-hearted acoustic poetry invites the listener into a colourful world. ‘Silver Moon’ is a concept album full of wonderful songs blending into each other, making the album come across like a complete work, a psychedelic stage play – pictorial and enchanted. This work’s hallucinogenic atmosphere is accentuated by ’60s influences from the likes of Gong and early Pink Floyd”. (Sulatron Records)
