Tory Z Starbuck : Helicopter Coma

Ambient Edge-this cd could be meditative if it was not for the explosive moments of tranquility melting away constantly. If Peter Murphy and David Sylvian kidnapped Anoushka Shankar and fled to Iraq with her, this would be the soundtrack.
Genre: Avant Garde: Psychedelia
Release Date: 2007
Helicopter Coma Record Label: Kinetic Telepathy

This cd was released in 2006. It was very influenced by the desert of Moab, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona. It was also influenced by the tragedies that happened in India with the floods and earthquakes and the war in the middle-east.
A heavy dose of Ravi and Anoushka Shankar as well as Throbbing Gristle and Arabic, Syrian and Turkish folk music were listened to whilst recording this muzik.
This album COULD fake people out as being ambient while listening to the beginings of each song. There are, however, pockets of complete chaos and anarchy within the compositions.
