LA RECENSIONE
"This night the moon dreams more lazily; like a beautiful woman who, lying among soft cushions, with a gentle hand lazily caresses the contours of her own breasts before sleeping, on the velvety back of soft clouds. She often lies, captivated as if dying, her gaze turned upwards towards white visions, which, like blooming flowers, rise to the sky. When sometimes on this globe, in indolence, she accidentally lets fall a secret tear, a poet stands out against oblivion. He captures in the palm of his hand this pale and furtive tear, this drop of opal from which rainbow reflections radiate, and hides it within his heart, away from the eyes of the sun."
"Tristezze della luna" (C. Baudelaire 1857).
Ecstasy and wonder, suggestion and solemnity, a cascade of pure light like spring water, crystalline and dazzling. Florian Fricke raises a sound wave that nullifies the distance between earth and sky, his celestial sound hovers among the runes, a magniloquent and glorious song of Hecate...

The entire work should be considered: a celebration of the soul, of joy, and of light that makes the mind vibrate, floating in the most absolute stasis and calm...
More than the individual songs, the entire work should be considered: a celebration of the soul, of joy, and of light.

Hosianna enchants you, devours you inside, like a thousand arches of fire.
It’s our fear of living. It’s the fear of masturbating while listening to the sweet notes produced by drugged and cultured musicians like no one before.

I just have to hit play and hope to find once again those angels whispering Hosianna Mantra in my ear.
A Sunday in the spirit of relaxation... you find yourself before a celestial vision. A pure waterfall, tall, paradisiacal.

Electronic music could not have expressed the spiritual potential and purity contained in this work.
After forty minutes the effect is that of a prayer: peace in the spirit.

"Hosianna Mantra was a mystical hymn imbued with cosmic purity that marvelously united Christian and Eastern religiosity."
"It is impossible to remain indifferent if you manage to enter into the pan-cultural mysticism of this record."
