Biosphere – Microgravity

This is the sort of soft, trancy industrialism that gives me direction at my Amazon warehouse job. Soft blips, whirs, and synthetic almost organic pulses puts a purpose to my mission and stride in my step. Microgravity is an absolute triumph, soft and introductory. Baby satellites is sort of directionless, in a spacey, all-encoming sense.

We then enter Tranquilizer, taking us farther back into the recesses of space and our own consciousness, revealing as a memory from childhood and thought-provoking in simplicity. Whispers surround us.
I can see how signalwave and the more dark ambient electronic albums garnered major inspiration from this work.

From here the album begins a psychedelic venture of twists and turns into broken signal and trancy club bounces through “The Fairy Tale”, and docks into the peaceful and almost mournful isolated space platform of “Cloudwalker II” (there is no Cloudwalker I on this album) where soft whisps and flutes caress our skin like the cleansing mist.

It feels now as though we have made it somewhere reserved only for the invited, rarely seen by other eyes. By this point the album is incredibly ambient and relaxing. And now we enter the Chromosphere. Sonic twinkles are magnified and spun into a glimmering and shining soundtrack, each rattle and tremor multiplied and shot around like cosmic mirrors.

Now, finally, we arrive at Cygnus-A. The icy moans of a mining planet long abandoned to the frost chant and whirl. The interphase nears, and we make it to the core, to a softly shimmering, brightly pulsing and uniquely organic Utopian Biopsphere. Or…. What could have been. It seems lost, hollow, as though it is a recording of that which was lost long ago. Like no other album. Intensely ambient in the coolest and spaciest sense. Thrilling and yet relaxing. Perfectly balanced.
