About Release:

This is the first full-length CD-R release by Amanda Votto from Canada under The Floating World moniker. She has been making music for ten years now, though. The main (and often sole) instrument on this album is flute that brings to mind Nik Turner playing his flute in the Great pyramid at Giza inspired by the ancient Egyptian gods. All of the album is very calm and airy and it demands the total concentration of the listener. In addition to the effected flute there are some quiet, apparently synthesised sounds and drones on the album. There might be some real nature sounds in there too, but it’s hard to be sure. There are six instrumental tracks of ethereal, mystical folk on the album, all of which are very spiritual. Votto cites for example night, seasons, fog, sky, void, flowers, sea etc. as influences, and you can really hear that from her music. If you’ve got the guts to listen to this on mushrooms in a dark forest, you will see God or even realize you are God! Great stuff from Barl Fire again, too bad that there are only 100 copies of this gem, so be quick © Psychotropic Zone
