Shifted Phases ‎– The Cosmic Memoirs Of The Late Great Rupert J. Rosinthrope

mine came in a matte cardboard black die-cut sleeve but also has the sticker (large rectangular) on the front. Original barcode though is stickered over w/ a new barcode: efa 56196-6 / 0718755 619667.The barcode underneath (still slightly visible) end with 62. Hope this helps regarding original/represses issues.

For me this is one of the best techno albums ever recorded. It certainly is the high point of James Stinson's much too brief exploration of digital sound generation. The tracks oscillate between harsh digital percussive noises and warm analogue harmonics, showing off the abundant musicality that set Stinson light years apart from his imitators. Never too simple, never too anxious, always straight to the heart. R.I.P.

Most of the tracks on this album from the Storm series sound odd compared to other Storm releases. I must say this album is not one of my Storm-favorites, but it is still very very good. The tracks are more abstract than the other Storms. My favorite Shifted Phases track has to be 'Lonely Journey Of The Comet Bopp'. This track is made with a great deal of sensitivity, like only James Stinson could. Another great track, more dancefloor oriented, would have to be 'White Dwarf'.

Get this album if you're a Drexciya fanatic, for other people this one may be difficult to dig. I absolutely love it.

You really need to give this one a few spins... after that it sinks in, and it's obvious that this album rocks. Nobody ever told Miles to start playing a guitar, so Stinson & Co. shouldn't be criticized for sticking with what works. If you're disappointed with the recent "modern" Drexciya lps, try this. Instant sleeper classic.

Yet another Drexciya related release, this one is supposedly a tribute to one of its fallen members. A bit more abstract and darker than other Drexciya releases its still a slammin' release. One for the mind for sure.

Love Drexcya that much i had to buy this on cd , cause i didn't want to miss out 2 trax . Great album, that reminds me more of Red Planet ,than Drexcya . Anyway , whoever produced it (James Stinson supposedly)did a real good job.Thou 'Harnessed The storm' is better from my point of view..
