Now this one showcases a project spanning more than 20 years, a long term plan to release a collection of space themed soundtracks. Some excerpts from the SUN DIAL repertoire already have been in demand for various film and television soundtracks in the past. The twelve songs given are equally applicable for sure. The album indicates a move to a progressive electronics project, of course with Gary Ramon as the head. And so, without having any liner notes at hand yet, this seems to be a solo works more or less, probably with additional support by longtime companion Scorpio. The twelve tracks are relatively short when speaking of prog terms, except the CD bonus track nothing is crossing the five minute running time here.

You may like to disappear into some relaxed and dreamy space stuff from time to time? Then you're on the right track here. A vintage kraut and psychedelic pop appeal is evident all over. Electronics are dominating, including drums and bass, in most cases at least. But this is also nicely spiked with organ, mellotron, acoustic guitar and sitar now and then. Ramon harmonizes krautish hypnotic beats and catchy melodies in a remarkable manner. A beneficial addition to the Sulatron Records back catalogue. Available on vinyl or compact disc, on the latter occasion equipped with my personal highlight, the extended version of Hangar 13. 3.5 stars.
