Making his Peak Oil debut with a full-length inspired by the CIA’s acid-dosing mind control experiments of the late 1950's and early 1960's, Swiss analog synth mastermind Florin Büchel crafts a sprialling, immersive narrative of vital, psychedelic, acid-drenched, murky fugues recorded live to cassette.
Whether the disoriented whirling dervish 303 echoes of “Behavioral Engineering” or the meditative dissolution-of-reality via cascading aural fragments in “Mind Control in Marin County”, Büchel has scripted a conceptually layered, palpably thrilling love letter to all forms of transgressive psychedelia, musical or otherwise.
