ALMAGEST

Very cool and relaxing cosmic ambient piece from this young band. EGYPTIAN KINGS' music is inspired by space rock and electronica, but also by ambient and trip-hop music in the veins of THE ORB and ALPHA. The whole disc could be a soundtrack gathering echoes from lost and mysterious regions of the universe.

Mostly instrumental, "Almagest" uses trance loops, synthesizers, guitars, flute and explosions in the sky to transform the listener into a cosmic traveler. The music is so calm, delicate, magic and enchanting and reflects sometimes ancient civilizations and oriental landscapes. An empty space between the planets and the stars.

Very original and breathtaking, apart from HAWKWIND and OZRIC TENTACLES, the music from the EGYPTIAN KINGS will make the happiness of all space and ambient music lovers. Refreshing, a band to discover!
