New emissions of light and sound appreciation

[WilDFire]

I know this DVD was released a while ago but I've recently dug it out and can't seem to stop playing it. Yes, as previously mentioned in a thread here the mixing (as likely done by the editors) is not as smooth as it could be, but it is Sasha music at its finest and the surfing is top notch as well. It is sooo peaceful to imagine yourself as a diver/surfer underwater looking at a tropical sky through bubbles rising while listening to beautiful Sasha chords on a sweet 16th note triplet tape delay. Definitely superb when sober or even better when chemically augmented (even if only with a few beers.)

If you guys and gals haven't seen it PLEASE do yourselves a favor and check it out. At least the producers are sharp cats as they were cheeky enough to put a label on the cover stating: "WARNING: for best results, please view between midnight and 5am".

There is a track on the soundtrack that I totally love. But I can't remember about it right now. Will have to get back to listening to it.

Re: New emissions of light and sound appreciation

Powaqqatsi is the only one on here that I have seen.. and that was many moons ago.. but the imagery is still quite vivid. The music - stellar... that being said I haven' t listened to it for quite a while now.





I haven't seen/heard Emissions of Sound and Light... yet.

Re: New emissions of light and sound appreciation

Koyaanisqatsiis the only one I will watch, but nowadays I only do it for the music. I'm not too keen on watching the shuttle blow up again.

Haven't seen the vid yet but the second and last tracks (excluding the outro) - Electromania & Marketplace, are some my favourtie Sasha productions. Can't wait to see the surfing....

^holding your breath while making pressing 's?

Baraka is the only movie i've seen (and own) from this thread, will check out the others if they are equally recommended?

Re: New emissions of light and sound appreciation

orkidea - unity is sample/influenced by a track of powaqatsi!

so could be worth it!

Re: New emissions of light and sound appreciation

I will recommend Powaqqatsi. Its definitely a 'mood' movie though.
