SINOIA CAVES Beyond The Black Rainbow (2014 US Limited Subscriber Edition 7-track LP pressed on Heavyweight Smokey Pink Vinyl - Posited as a 'lost film' of the 1980s, Panos Cosmatos' 'Beyond The Black Rainbow' is inspired by classic dystopian fiction and the obscure SF movies one used to see lining the shelves of the local video store. Created by Sinoia Caves, the ongoing project of Jeremy Schmidt, a disciple of the long-form cosmic synthesizersoundscape, and member of Canadian psych-and-prog-spiritual pioneers Black Mountain, the soundtrack is many things: haunting, uncompromising, intense – but is always a fascinating listen. Incorporating touchstone elements such as mellotron choirs, glacial analogue synthesizer pads and arpeggiators, Schmidt artfully navigates the various sonic sensibilities of the 70s-80s genre aesthetic.
