Sweeping Logic - Lucid Side Of The Dream

Truly INQB8R release, this sublime record absorbed a lot of influences and it may give back a lot of influences as well, specially for those who are investigating the music like it would be an urban thriller. Prepare your brains turned otherwise when you first heard it. Despite the risky acknowledgment of dedication to LSD, the drug which was invented by a human and then punished by humans later for its "suspicious nature", this ethereal music explodes the deepest side of any human nature itself. It's not just an original combination of wonderful riffs, dark hip-hop rhythms and dreamy soundscapes, but a magical atmosphere which makes the positively amazing moment of life while you listen to it, most possibly because the sound presented is the life of its unique side.

Tracks were originally published on last.fm and MySpace (were they gained a lot of success already), and then re-issued with us in a special form of "nonstop" mix, when all themes are following one after other, from the beginning 'till the end giving you a possibility to perceive everything in whole like it would build a complete picture. Your MP3-player must support gapless playback for giving you the full joy of this release. By the same approach we will also extend our future concepts to a new level. INQB8R edition also includes an exclusive 1-minute interlude, which was not published previously.

I was proud to discover and suggest this work to INQB8R, more so I've worked a bit on extending its concepts. If you'd check the initial version of the full EP on last.fm, you will see the tracks have a different order (not mentioning they have lower MP3 bitrate). What we did for INQB8R, is a special nonstop-mix form of tracks: while the one ends, the other starts, and it give you an impression like everything 'swims' slowly from track to track, making it possible to enjoy the release again and again in whole. I've enjoyed it many times myself as soon as we polished the mix.

We also have added an exclusive track "The Neverending Train" which was written by Eduard specially for INQB8R and re-made by our team.

Another long story was mastering of tracks, we have 3 attempts of doing that and the final version is presented now. The sound obviously differs from the raw version.

We hope you'll enjoy it - I personally think with this EP, we have the strongest conceptual release so far.

Webzine Sound Proector noticed our release in such light (RUS):

pi micron:
Беря в расчет последний промежуток времени, недавний выпуск сетевого лейбла INQB8R - одна из немногих доступных для свободного скачивания работ, которая меня действительно впечатлила и тронула. Музыкант, выступающий под псевдонимом Sweeping Logic, врядли известен широкому кругу слушателей, его музыка до релиза на "инкубаторе" была доступна на таких ресурсах, как myspace и last.fm. Позднее треки Lucid Side Of The Dream были смиксованы в один единый звукоряд и выложены в виде очередного релиза.

Музыка представляет собой запоминающийся трип по ночному городу, поглотившему вереницы людей и машин, исполосованному светом неоновой рекламы, фонарей и автомобильных фар. Город пахнет парфюмом и выхлопными газами, он выглядит настолько красиво, что вскоре становится отвратителен. На основных ролях здесь выступают тонущие в эффекте реверберации хип-хоп ритмы и рояль, под звуки которого эмоции норовят выскользнуть из того отсека нашего я, где их можно держать под контролем. Обрывки человеческих фраз, протяжные звуковые подложки и всевозможные урбанистические полевые записи создают вокруг огромное пространство и движение - перемещение по городу, представляющему собой сложную систему взаимодействий, вне которой нам удалось оказаться. Мы смотрим на все со стороны, мы движемся дальше и дальше, мы огибаем надоевших людей, впитав эссенцию собственных переживаний и окидывая взглядом открывающиеся пейзажи из городских построек и утопленных в их нутро ярких витрин.
Может быть, все это галлюцинация?..
