Capsula - Synthesis Of Reality FLAC

Before you read this, i have to tell you that this type of music is exactly my taste, and this is without doubt the best album i have ever heard, so the review is not going to be a great third person review. Taste or not, if you do have good ear, you cannot help but falling in love with the technical perfections and variations in this album, simply unique.

I’ve heard this album literally over 50 times, and my conclusion is that you cannot define this album, it is not downtempo, dub, ambient or trance, but it sure is psychedelic. The best overall description of this album would have to be the album’s title “Synthesis of Reality”, it is really a synthesis of reality.

The album starts off with technical masterpieces in every layer, surrounding each other with foolish funny psychedelic feeling all over. There is no uplifting, happy, melancholy or dark feeling, nor is there any take off, there is no definable intro and the music doesn’t fade away, it just disappears in a very entertaining way. Incredible. As you listen further into the album, the melodies off unnatural undefinable variations take the music to another dimension.

This album got so much entertaining that you simply cannot experience it’s full value in an ordinary state of mind.

Exploring inner as well as outer space…

Capsula is Yosi Shamay from Israel… Prior to this debut album, he has only released three tracks – on two different downtempo compilations… But oh, what tracks! All tracks were distinct stand-out tracks on the compilations they were on… So when Ajana Records announced this album, I was jumping around in circles – as this guy has a big fat plus in my cool-book… Now let’s see if the album lives up to my bloated expectations…

Phew – what a ride! Now this is definitely a very noteworthy album… The sheer magnitude of some of these tracks here – it’s simply impressive! The Shpongle-link is evident, but it’s too easy to just write this off, as a Shpongle-clone…. It’s not! This is the work of a very talented guy – seeking inspiration in all kinds of music. All kept within a framework of spiritual and psychedelic downbeat. And I’m damn impressed! Well, I kinda knew what to expect from the compilation tracks, but still – this album fully lived up to my huge expectations! I like most tracks here, but obviously some are better than others – and a few are even worthy of becoming legendary! I’m sure they will! Some people will most likely be put off by the excessive use of voice samples – and let’s face it; with all the voice samples, Capsula is like the Space Tribe of chill-out music, but I really think he can pull it off… I wouldn’t want it any other way with any of these tracks!

Whereas the music is top drawer all the way through, it’s a shame that Ajana Records didn’t go to the same lengths with the cover finish. I mean, the track-times are wrong and an extra proof-reading would have taken care of the most obvious spelling mistakes… It’s not cool misspelling the album title, now is it? Also, I’m not a big fan of the cover art which seems a little too messy for my tastes! But hey – screw all that, it’s the music that’s important here! And yeah – this is amazing music! I really, really like it! Recommended to all fans of eclectic, psychedelic downtempo! It’s a safe buy! Enjoy!
