Outstanding debut album by Joseph McDade from Albany, New York. Much more as this was his senior project at the College of Saint Rose.
Your Grace from Barcelona, Spain is a musical project that born from the desire to integrate ancient philosophy, alchemy and the hermetic of nowadays music. Indeed, It is a contemplative journey through the universe of human passions. A trip to get hold of ancestral rhythms and harmonies without neglecting heavier sounds and powerful rock.
Lucid Planet are a progressive, psychedelic rock band from Melbourne, Australia.
With a sound ranging from intense heavy rock to clean delay driven psychedelic soundscapes and everything in between.
Their sound draws from so much you’ve heard before—‘70s rock and funk, high-energy improv, a touch of pop, a sliver of metal. But the members of this group mix and match those elements—with just a hint of modern tech to burnish a sturdy nucleus of retro-minded organ and guitar—in ways that never fail to astonish.
„Escape The Cloudscape“ (erschienen am 15. Januar 2018) ist nach „Fragments Of A Lifetime“ (2015) und „Squaring The Circle“ (2012) die bereits dritte in Eigenregie produzierte Platte der westösterreichischen Rockband Experience.
In der seit 2003 bestehenden Formation veröffentlichte die Band mehrere Platten und eine Live-DVD und rockte in über 100 Live-Shows zahlreiche Bühnen Mitteleuropas.
Die unvergleichbare Live-Qualität der Truppe begeistert seither nicht nur zahlreiche Fans, sondern manifestiert sich unter anderem auch an einzigartigen Bookings für Supportshows von Deep Purple, Status Quo und Gotthard.
2012 schaffte es die Band mit ihrem Song „A Thousand Goodbyes“ für 9 Wochen in die österreichischen Top 40.
Die einzigartige Mischung aus harten Gitarrenriffs, epischen Keyboardarrangements, tighten Drums und der unverkennbaren Stimme des Sängers gepaart mit fulminanten Chorgesängen verdeutlichen den Wiedererkennungswert von Experience.
Textlich thematisieren Experience Geschichten aus dem wahren Leben und vermitteln dabei ihren eigenen philosophischen Zugang.

“If Portishead and Massive Attack got together with BANKS and Ella Eyre, THIS is what their trippy, wayward kids would sound like!” “I Need Your Lovin’”, a cover of “Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometime” by The Korgis.
