from Psychedelic Folk Homestead:

This is a compilation of mostly lo-fi recordings of groups related with the label.
The tracks fit well together. Most of them are loosely made, and are stoned-sleepy, and are somewhat tiresome lazy improvised pieces with no other ideas other than the momentous and unprepared creativity. After having heard many improvisers who have created highly effective improvisations I realized that what it needs is a well prepared mental state and energy to make it work. With tons of ideas that brood like a volcano, even if it’s only prepared as mental stuff, nothing can go wrong in such an improvisation.

What I really hate is the new age feminine mentality or lazy egocentric musicians mentality, that someone can have talent without discipline, or a content through vague loose and lazy intuition. All big improvisers had much more in common than falling back on the feeling of “I have the mentality to do well so it will be good”. Most musicians here fail to touch upon the knowledge and true mysticism, needed how to create a truly high level of energy in such moments.

My favourite track in this style might be the one from the Brothers of the Occult Sisterhood. The most moody track perhaps is from Ramases III. More improvised psychedelic and moody too is the track by Blonde Cobra. Also Soarwhole’s contribution is slightly psychedelic.
