{"product_id":"phi-psonics-expanding-to-one-1","title":"Phi-Psonics - Expanding To One [2LP]","description":"\u003cp\u003eExpanding to One is a meditative instrumental album, conceived almost entirely in the moment, fourteen tracks over two hours recorded with a changing ensemble of musicians at Healing Force of the Universe in Pasadena.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePhi-Psonics operate as an instrumental collective based in Los Angeles rather than a fixed group, which explains the free and serene nature of this recording, music that seems discovered rather than composed, closer to a group breathing together than a group executing a plan. This approach only really works with musicians who trust each other completely, and the fluctuating composition here plays like people really listening to each other rather than performing over each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePrelude: Expansion opens the album by calming listeners rather than announcing anything, a gentle opening before the album really begins. Many Paths allows the band's improvisational instincts to be expressed most freely, following its own logic rather than a set structure. Sounds of the Universe leans toward pure atmosphere, with synthesizers and space taking precedence over melody, and Mysteries of the Dark ends the album on its most patient and unfinished note.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn hour of music that never feels like it's trying to get anywhere in particular. Sometimes that's precisely the point.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinylestore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67910335955021,"sku":"4062548101133","price":45.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0796\/9131\/7325\/files\/Phi-Psonics-Expanding_To_One_2LP.jpg?v=1794005702","url":"https:\/\/vinylestore.shop\/products\/phi-psonics-expanding-to-one-1","provider":"Vinylestore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
