Estradasphere - Its understood (2000) - CD

Insanely complex and beautiful sounds, mind blowing.

Estradasphere was an experimental band that originated in Santa Cruz, California during the late 1990s. The band, which in its last incarnation was based in Seattle, consisted of 6 multi-instrumentalists from a variety of musical backgrounds trained in disciplines ranging from classical music and jazz to heavy metal.

Estradasphere were influenced by many different artists from many different subgenres, such as jazz, funk, techno, classical music, pop, heavy metal,New Age, Latin, Balkan, Greek and gypsy. They were influenced by artists such as The Beach Boys and Secret Chiefs 3, and have been compared toMr. Bungle,Frank Zappa and John Zorn. Similarly to Mr. Bungle and Secret Chiefs 3, the band mixes several genres in its songs. The band was a self-proclaimed inventor of bizarre genres such as "Bulgarian Surf", "Romanian Gypsy-Metal", and "Spaghetti Eastern" and sounded like "Psychedelic-Sci-fi", "Gypsy-Metal-Jazz" and "Epic-Cinema-Thon", according to its MySpace.

Actually, when I got to the CD VERSION of Deep Purple - "Lazy", I just couldn't listen to it anymore, terrible terrible mix and/or master (especially when the harmonica came in, sounded like a constipated duck). I'm putting the vinyl version back on.

I have Maggot Brain in the stash, Jason. Good pressing and sound quality to be sure. Picked up Iggy Pop's The Idiot from them and it is very nice, too.

I should look into getting a better copy of that one, mine if beat to hell. Speaking of Iggy, ever listen to New VAlues? That one's my personal favorite Iggy solo album and I think often overlooked. Of course, opinions vary or it wouldn't be often overlooked. And it could have just been repeated listens at a key age.
