about

Sadassa Silvia’s evocative first record conjures its own cosmos at once phantasmic and familiar. These are astral hymns sung on synthesizers and guitars – but also, perhaps, the score to a film set on Mars’s Utopian Plain or the soundtrack to your next “Kosmiche Pajama Party” (go to track seven for the invitation). The music harnesses the lights of Edgar Froese, Robert Fripp, Richard Pinhas, and Manuel Gottsching only to refract them and leave behind its own iridescent glow. When the record reaches its crescendo on the glorious ninth track, “A Farewell to Mars,” I’m put in mind of the deepest elements of American music born in the primitive churches when hymns were lined out and sung in slow echolike organum, the notes of individual voices in the wilderness blending and liquefying into a river of sacred sound. Sadassa Silvia can lead you to the other shore. – Dr. Scott L. Matthews

"Too kosmische." – Acid Ted

"I love it all." – Felix Jay
