In 2001: A Space Odyssey, visionary film director Stanley Kubrick charted new cinematic terrain as he took viewers on a psychedelic trip into the 21st century.
In Brainscapes 2001, visionary Dutch musician Alain Eskinasi (of 3rd Force fame) similarly employs new musical sounds and forms to take listeners on a sonic journey into the new millennium.
This is the third Brainscapes recording to emanate from the Amsterdam studio of this prolific composer, arranger, keyboardist and percussionist.
The first two dealt with, respectively, music's effects on the brain and the emotions.
Call them sound collages where ambient, trance-dance and meditation music meet in seductive and mysterious ways.
His latest project distills elements from the first two records, but adds an uptempo dance aesthetic to the mix.
The music is still imbued with a hypnotic, otherwordly quality, but is layered with an infectious groove that moves the feet as it uplifts the spirit.
