Album Notes

This CD feels like a Pink Floyd album, perhaps made shortly after "Dark Side of the Moon." The music doesn't sound so much like Pink Floyd -- except for parts of "Freedom Wind" perhaps -- but it flows from song to song like a Floyd concept LP.

Most of the songs are instrumentals.

The CD starts off with the strange mumblings of a Japanese Samurai, and the goes off on a punk/surf rock tangent, before letting go to a free-for-all jam, building in intensity back to the signature riff. Ultimately, this becomes a Spanish jam that recalls old Jefferson Airplane. Parts also sound a bit like the Clash or X.

The next track -- "A Trip To The Moon" -- is the most complicated instrumental, inspired by King Crimson's song "Fracture" from 1974. But it also sounds a bit like Yes, and then later, David Crosby's CD "If Only I Could Remember My Name." The mandolin riffs add a nice texture.

"Freedom Wind" is the only original here with lyrics, and this is a cosmic song with a looping structure that captures the nature of wind and change. The jam really takes off, showcasing how Space Debris can channel energy into improvisational journeys that wander like reptiles.

"That Which Binds Tightly" should be in everyone's IPOD as they cross the Western US. This is the ultimate cruise jam!!!

The last song is the Dead's "The Other One." There are a few Debris twists to this psychedelic standard, and Dead Heads will not be disappointed!
