Ghost Funk Orchestra - A Trip To The Moon (Seaglass/ Black Swirl Vinyl)
For Fans Of... Orions Belte, Temples, Allah-Las, Unknown
Mortal Orchestra, Khruangbin, David Axelrod, Man or Astro-Man? Seaglass W/ Black Swirl Vinyl is for Indies only. 4th Studio LP from
GFO! Heavily features archival audio from the 1969 moon landing. Coming off the heels of 2022's A New Kind of Love, A Trip To The
Moon sees Ghost Funk Orchestra diving even deeper in the worlds of film music, exotica, and psychedelic surf rock. The aim is to
create a layered and collaged listening experience with more elements than you could possibly pick out in a single listen. The guitars
are fuzzy and flooded with spring reverb, and the horns are arranged in a studio big band fashion. It's full of big compositions with
garage rock attitude. Influences range everywhere from Eddie Palmieri and Esquivel to The Lively Ones, Dusty Springfield, and War.
The tracks are tied together by real recorded transmissions from the Apollo moon missions. The concept for the album is a story about
a woman stranded on earth by her cosmonaut partner, left to ponder his whereabouts and whether or not he'll make it back from the
cosmos alive. Tracks: 1. Opening 2. Eyes of Love 3. Where To? 4. To The Moon! 5. Achluo 6. Nova 7. Helios 8. Into The Abyss 9.
