Very chill, trippy album. Tasty guitar, vocals and electronic riffs weave in and out seamlessly. Song structure reminiscent of Pink Floyd, but the production gives it the feel of a trance album. Favorite tracks include The Sequence and Psychonaut.
on first listen it sounded very multi-layerd and multi-dimesional. songs start off in a ambient bliss, then some female vocals come in, the song gets more upbeat and sweeps you on a journey ,the song ends with a full on band sound, like guitars and the works. Every listen can give you a completly different feeling than before. somtimes the female vocals can come off as a R&B singer or diva-ish. To compare to other artists i must say the electronics are like "shpongle" and "younger brother" with sounds of "FSOL" and the psycadelic rock, like early "pink floyd"and a few other bands from that time. Its a treat to listen to and break away from the typical sounds of electronic music or typical rock music. IF U ARE READING THIS THAN JUST DOWNLOAD AND LISTEN RIGHT AWAY. GOOD MUSIC FOR THE CREATIVE MIND AND TO GET YOUR CREATIVITY FLOWING.
This goes beyond the accepted horizons of the psy-ambient genre. Hoopy frood, you might have never heard of them but after this release you will have. psychedelic ambient meets pink floyd. wow!. i wint keep banging on about it. Suffice to say i am still blown away every time i hear it. Hoopy frood is proud to present, as their first release, Psychonaut. Traveling though all downtempo genres from psychedelic, ambient, chilled, electro, rock, ambient, folk and spiritual vocals, this is a multi-dimensional album. Style: Ambient Released: Nov. 2004/47 Review from Psyshop.com
