This is one of Cadenza's finest releases... and consequently some of the deepest tracks ever pressed to vinyl in the electronic genre... Depth is really what comes to mind when I listen to both tracks on this EP... Completely hypnotizing, it's a relief to know that someone can create electronic music of this caliber. It's tracks like these that remind us why one spends hours a day searching for something special in the first place. Solomon's Prayer and Father will always be regarded as masterpieces in the world of electronic music.. Que nunca perdáis la inspiración.. Vosotros sois grandes artistas.
The first track on this album is called 'False Ruler'.
I can only echo what has been said, Out There Somewhere is quite possibly the greatest piece of electronic music ever conducted, and I say 'conducted' because of the orchestral elegance of the track(s).

See Emily Play was released in June '67 (the very pinnacle of the "Summer Of Love"), and no other song seems better suited to the vibe of that incredible time. Right from the screeching start the funky bassline and twisting organ grab your attention, then the wonderful drop takes you into Syd's first verse. It truly is a special moment every time I hear it.
A lot can be interpreted with Syd Barrett's lyrics (both with Pink Floyd and his solo work), but I will not bore you with what my personal thoughts are. With a line as beautiful as "Float On A River, Forever And Ever, Emily" it would be wrong to dissect.
This perfect pop song also has a fantastic b-side called Scarecrow (an album cut from Pink Floyd's debut album Piper At The Gates Of Dawn). Much like that album as a whole, it takes the listener on a journey to places only they know in their minds. This was one of Syd Barrett's brilliant touches; the ability to paint personal images in the listeners minds with his perfect use of words. He was a fan of poetry, and it shows.
Of course this was only the start of Pink Floyd's journey. Syd wouldn't be along for the ride, but with material like this he was always going to be remembered.
