THE REVIEW
Lost Horizons.
Never was a NAME (because, in my opinion, an album has a name, not a title) more aptly chosen and even prophetic in announcing the emotions it would evoke in the soul of a twenty-three-year-old, who had already immersed themselves in the magical world of early millennium electronic music but still couldn't define its HORIZON.
This is an intense masterpiece where the first track, ELEMENTS, immediately reveals the elements and the alchemy of sounds these two little geniuses managed to blend. Elements that combine with disarming ease and are able to produce a truly engaging and moving sound (chills during the bagpipes at the end of elements).
An album to own also for its ultra-luxurious packaging, a colorful and artistic digipak.
Who said that early millennium electronic music has to be like AIR and not like LEMON JELLY?

"Space Walk becomes the soundtrack of my January days."
"The greatest quality of this album - the ability to produce an unreal world - does not take root in the average angry listener and thus becomes an irremediable flaw."
By The_dull_flame
"Space Walk" struck me not just for the stunning visual art but for a powerful and playful song full of dreamy yet determined sounds.
An album that is not 'cool' as they said at the time of its release, but a testament to original madness.
