Terramar - Terramar Terramar

Terramar is the confluence of Causa Sui and SoCal guitar genius Isaiah Mitchell. Recorded during a week-long immersion in the El Paraiso studio in Odense, Denmark, the group manifests deep currents of psychedelia and kosmische, riding them into a heavy, uncharted swell of sonic exploration.

On the group's self-titled debut album, Isaiah Mitchell – best known for expansive, high-powered guitar solos in Earthless – brings previously unrecognised sides of his musical personality to the surface. And what better assemblage for this endeavour than the El Paraiso Records crew – known for their genre-defying deep dives that explore krautrock, spiritual jazz and even electronic minimalism? The result is exactly what one could have hoped for in a trans-Atlantic session like this: a collaboration where each party reveals new angles in the other's musicianship. A joint venture that manages to bring something new to light by paying homage to traditions of the past: Californian psychedelia, German kosmische and Scandinavian commune rock.

The group flies high on tracks such as ”Swell” and the scorching ”Melted Mountain”, but pushes into deeper experimental territory on ”Ritual De Fantasmas”, ”Caterpillar” and ”Borrego”, weaving synthesizers and studio manipulation into the fabric of their sound. Terramar is a true psychedelic delight.
