The Infinity Project was created by Raja Ram, Graham Wood and Simon Posford - giants of the psy trance scene. Mystical Experiences is the second cd of them. It's one of my favourite psychedelic ambient albums, which is very hypnotic and visional. Get you to incredible beautiful places where sound becomes colour and colour becomes sound... You should turn off your phone, close the doors, curtain off, lay on your bed, close your eyes and flow with this perfect melodies and sounds sometimes enriched by flute playing by Raja. Must have electronic relase. Absolute classic. Magnificent!

Imagine your collection of electronic albums as a perfect square, and draw the different albums into their respective corners defined by their musical style. This album is one of four cornerstones. Mystical Experiences is the perfect piece of the puzzle where "psychedelic" and "ambient" comes together. The minds and creativity of a trio of skilled musicians; Simon Posford, Raja Ram and Graham Wood (all members of the group "Mystery Of The Yeti") comes together and results in a magnificent release full of diverse and excellent tracks. The different tracks blend into one another so well, you easily drift away into other thoughts.. It's a truce masterpiece from TIP, and it's sure to a make firm stand in any collection of music.

The first album by the TIP Records founders. For some reason they put it out on Blue Room Released rather than their very own TIP label. On TIP they however put out the Feeling Weird album in 1995 too.

This album is the definition of “psychedelic” ambient. You don’t find the sounds of nature as in normal ambient. Except for the magical flute of Raja Ram, and occasionally some ethnic sounds, the most part of it is made of multiple sound layers and lots of melodies which are always in motion. It’s complimented with loads of psychedelic effects and some tracks have a broken beat. Also there is a heavy dubby bass most times which when coupled with some broken beat as explained above the music will surprisingly move you and still kick ass despite this being ambient.

This is wicked psy-ambient! Try Mystical Experiences, Alien Patrol and the twenty minutes long Under The Overtones.

A masterpiece!

If you're of the Shpongle persuasion then you'll definetely like this release. This was TIP's first ambient release, but about half of it was co-written with Simon Posford, making this pre- Shpongle. The flutes, soundscapes and spacey samples are brainchildren of where Shpongle went just a couple of years later. The complexity in track structure is inherent in this LP, and it works very well since this is not a full- on Goa LP. This is a very beautiful, well- produced LP that is now very valueable.
