Retinal
Circus
RETINAL CIRCUS, the long- awaited third album of BAST, has been finally released! This CD, featuring a large number of musicians, contains 13 brand new tracks resulting from the elaboration, editing and mixing in studio of live recordings done during the project BURN OUT, a series of audio-visual improvisation sessions, conceived by Aldo Ivancic, Janez Janša and Matjaz Mancek, realized by BAST at the Klub Gromka in Ljubljana, between November 2005 and June 2006. The title of this release, has a direct reference to "The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead" by Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner and Richard Alpert and wants to be as well a tribute to the legendary Club in Vancouver famous in the mid '60 for its psychedelic art. "When an individual becomes involved in 'the retinal circus,' he often loses interest in speaking." So... just listen to BAST's new 13 tracks and... the rest will follow! MP3 Samples
