The Alpine Continuum – From Stars to Mountains

Very little is known about the enigmatic Alpine Continuum, all we know is that the return address on this recording is a very small mountain village deep in the Swiss Alps. What is certain is that this is timeless cosmic music; a hypnotic interplanetary journey either to or from the center of the universe. Sounding something like a celestial offspring of Tangerine Dream, Carl Craig and Demdike Stare, this 40 minute tapestry of sound sometimes drifts weightlessly, as alien voices can be heard being transmitted from the farthest corners of the galaxy, at other times it moves at motorik light-speed past solar events and lush planets, which are lost as soon as they are discovered. This is new dimensional music, way beyond the horizon of your hi-fi.
