Notes
Liner Notes:
Since the origin of mankind societies of people everywhere have used psychedelics for ritual consciousness expanding experiments and spiritual purposes.
Today as never before stubhorn refusal to acknowledge the positive and profound experiences by societies has impoverished our spiritual relationships with nature, time and the supernatural.
New evidence is now directing archeologists into dramatic conclusions of hallucinogens' role in evolving consciousness from Plate and Aristotle to the druids and the early pioneers of computer technology.
Natural psychoactive substances from cannabis grass, mushrooms to lsd have been the catalyst for all the greatest luminations, revelations and ancestral connections.
This album is a capsule or gateway, a portal through whish altered states, dimensions, realities can co-exist, and can ben experienced, now!
Over the last six years, Simon Posford and Youth have experimented and explored the psychoactive environments best suited for inter-galactic travel and innerspace exploration.
The energy template matrix has been made manifested, honed, and focused at the Hallucinogen Sound Lab and Butterfly Studios with a host of cosmic collaborators. LSD/Dragonfly are proud to present Celtic Cross.
Have a nice trip!

On a cheap equipment, such as my new Panasonic, the music sounds very boring, compared to other Downtempo projects of Simon Posford such as 'Mystery Of The Yeti' or Shpongle. On a more 'hi-fi' system you will enjoy the acoustic guitar work & the bass (as well as many other instruments such as the violin, oud, flute and various percussion instruments) and you will see that this album is just as great.
Most of the music in this album is done in Downtempo\Dub style, with the exception of the the violin driven techno of Darshanon and a part of Khatmandu featuring some dancefloor beats.
Vocal samples:
- Hicksville - 'Oh my god, are we EVER in Hicksville' - William S. Burroughs
- Jade Garden - 'I stumbled upon the philosopher's stone. I had the veil of illusion pulled out and was confronted by the many levels of energy and many realms of consciousness which were available to man. I opened the pandora's box of multiple realities. Describe how I managed control, I could say psychedelic realms I became tuned in on a network of neurological signals; on a cellular resonance that radiate hundreds of millions of times per second within my body. The last six years, I have taken the voyage out of my mind, into my head, into my cells, over 300 times. Each time I make this voyage, I tried to communicate with fellow voyagers, and to my fellow men. Partly there's a result of our experiences, at the present time, over a million americans, have had the experience of going the underline, into the irri, shifting, halucinogen' - Timothy Leary
