Trees of Light

This new release is a vast leap into an ocean of space and sound, a quantum leap into cybernetics, biology, anti-gravity, time travel, dream speech and transfiguration. A seriously next step release!

This compilation shows clearly how Mr. Steve Hillage was one of the most important musicians of all times.His guitar riffs are always convincent, showing a experienced and fast fingers guitarrist. Maybe his vocals sounds weak, but the guitar and the synthes (minimoog) gives a balance and the sound always make us fly…

This is Trees Speak’s third album on Soul Jazz Records to be released within one year – and it’s amazing! The new album ‘PostHuman’ blends 1970s German electronic, ‘motorik’ Krautrock instrumentals, haunting, powerful 1960s & 1970s soundtracks, with a New York no-wave electronic synth-guitar analogue DIY-ness! Trees Speak’ segue together all these elements into their powerful new album, a high-concept collage of retro-futurist science-fiction music, fantastically illustrated by the artist Eric Lee, a dramatic vision of life after humanity. Trees Speak are from Tucson and their music often draws on the cosmic night-time magic of Arizona’s natural desert landscapes. ‘Trees Speak’ relates to the idea of future technologies storing information and data in trees and plants – using them as hard drives – and the idea that Trees communicate collectively. ‘PostHuman’ manages to take the listener deep into a unique musical world of unknown visions of the past and future.
