Title:	Where Does Your Mind Go?
Label:	IMMUNE
Format:	2LP
Price:	$24.00
Catalog #:	IMMUNE 011LP

"Where Does Your Mind Go? is the brand new studio album from Expo 70 recorded during one prolific evening in 2009 while on an East Coast tour. The recording was tackled by Jason Meagher (No Neck Blues Band, D. Charles Speer & the Helix) at his Black Dirt Studios in upstate New York. On the recording, Expo 70 founder Justin Wright is joined by part-time player Matt Hill (Umberto) and the two truly capture time and stand it still. Where Does Your Mind Go? is a 74-minute journey released on deluxe double LP and comprised of four long-form tracks that each take up a side of the two LPs. The drum rhythm of the album's opening track 'Close Your Eyes and Effortlessly Drift Away' will surely put the listener in a relaxed trance. Delicately strummed notes from guitar and synth slowly surface and come to the forefront, building as the guitar melodies shift and flow alongside majestic ambience that is eventually joined by a moody bass line. Side B's 'Night Dusting the Atmosphere' is a more electronically-driven piece that conjures the best of mid-'70s Klaus Schulze with darker moods that sound more like a '70s horror film than a loose drift into space. The second record shifts as 'Transgressing Outward Which Is Inward' opens with a pounding synth loop and is accompanied three minutes later by piano. Clocking in at nineteen minutes, this track's brooding synth melodies and fluttering piano notes build into a John Cage-like choral resonance. It's not hard to lose time while listening as the moods of each instrument delicately transform and intertwine." Deluxe full-color gatefold sleeve.

Title:	Journey Through Astral Projection
Label:	IMMUNE
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	IMMUNE 012CD

"Justin Wright's Expo 70 project has been pushing experimental, drone and Kosmiche Musik to new realms for nearly a decade now. Constant touring and a string of critically acclaimed albums released on labels such as Kill Shaman, Beta-lactam Ring, Peasant Magik, Aguirre, and Wright's own Sonic Meditations label have clearly brought Expo 70's name to the forefront of modern drone and Kosmiche Musik. In the fall of 2010 Immune released the epic double LP Where Does Your Mind Go? to critical acclaim and Expo 70 toured the country for two months in support. Immune is now proud to present the follow-up album Journey Through Astral Projection, further cementing the fact that Wright's work captures a true spirit of free thinking and creates tranquil moods and vast landscapes in audio fidelity. By the second track the gates open into a bed of dense organ tones and heavy guitar dirges, resembling a more meditative Terry Riley jamming with Sunn O)))."

Title:	Awakening
Label:	SONIC MEDITATIONS
Format:	LP
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	SM 027LP

"Long out-of-print cassette originally released on Sloow Tapes (Belgium) in an edition of 70 with hand colored inserts. Cassette sold out within a week and has become quite collectible. Recorded after Expo '70 played France in 2008, just weeks after the IAO festival where the label owner and musician met. Upon returning to the states, the experience spawned the 2 day recording session materializing these 2 improvised tracks with no overdubs. Both tracks begin with rhythmic beats and slowly morph into sprawling ambient pieces, shifting and shifting moods gradually into floating space." Limited to 500 copies on 180 gram vinyl with locked grooves on both sides, full color artwork.
