Magick Brother & Mystic Sister
Tarot Pt. Ii (black)
Mysterious Barcelona band Magick Brother & Mystic Sister return with 'Tarot Pt. II,' completing this 2-part concept album, a kaleidoscope of 22 songs based on the Major Arcana of the Tarot, a cross-cultural dream language. With their signature imaginative compositions featuring space-age keys and spiraling synths, intricate guitar mosaics and bass lines, pounding drums, exotic percussion, flute, cosmic and sitar sounds that carve textures for atmospheric female vocals, MBMS fuses a kind of dream-prog, Canterbury-like cosmic jazz, retro-futuristic krautrock and folk magical, creating their own universe and thus turning it into an essential musical experience. For this second part Eva Muntada (vocals, synthesizers, mellotron, organ, piano), Xavier Sandoval (bass and guitars), Alejandro Carmona (drums) and, the new member of the band, Tony Jagwar (sitar, guitars) have counted on the collaboration of Glenn Brigman (vocals), Didac Ruiz (percussions) and Maddy Gray (voiceover). 'Tarot Pt. II' is meant to be heard and experienced visually on vinyl: when the two discs are combined, the inner covers form an astrological mandala, a planetary wheel.
