The Belgian group Psy'Aviah is fussing again. Just as molecular gastronomy creates a kind of magic food, where using appropriate, totally natural products makes various culinary wonders, so Psy'Aviah creates its new albums. Treatments of the group members mean that from the seemingly simple ingredients are created positions that at each subsequent hearing, develop more and more interesting sound. It can be assumed, that the splitting of music molecules they have in their blood, and passing time allows only the sonic experiments to move further and further their existing coverage.
This publication consists of two discs. The first is a set of 14 new songs. The individual pieces are not devoid of a relatively known, characteristic to the formation achievements melancholy, however, are suitably reinforced by a specific, vibrating energy. There is no room for randomness, or so-called freedom of the motives, it is only intended, compatible whole. The album is a result of deliberate treatment, where artists interact with their listeners, using complementary sound to the lyrics.
On the "Introspection ~ Extrospection" among the songs stand out SOS Overdose, Deep Dark Desire, Ok, Nouveau Quiche, The Worst In Me, Home.
SOS Overdose reminds partly songs from hard trance genre, and it is not a beginning of the album. After it, there is Procedure To Mistrust, a slower, more spacious track, hypnotizing with the voice of Emelie Nicolaï. The next three songs hold up, but they simply does not distinguish. However, in Ok, you can find an alleviation after the sharp mixture of preceding pieces. But Nouveau Quiche is a such a gem, kept in a hip-hop stylistics. With The Worst In Me group is back to electro pop industrial sounds, to abandon them again in favor of more trance material in Timor. Energetic bullet as Human Garbage spreads havoc on the dancefloor, to prepare for moments of respite in the Song Of Independence. Extremely interesting is the Home, which is the last piece, built on a terribly catchy lyric, and at the same time supported by attractive melodies.
Remix layer presented on the second disc is a kind of a surprise - instead of putting just a simple bunch of remixes, group invited to collaborate various artists, and the effect of their activities is a Psy'Aviah’ newly recorded tracks as covers. It is an intriguing gimmick. Among the modifications contained on the album, in memory falls the version of Virtual Gods committed by Radical G, and a dynamic, well-balanced version from Noisuf-X for SOS Overdose, that is definitely better than the original. Ok in Freakangel’ version is a processed, aural pulp. It presents quite a different approach to the original theme. It is a pleasure to listen to it. Quieter than the other tracks are the sounds contained in Tired (Misery rendition) - derived from the 2008 "Entertainment Industries" and Something Evil (Chaos All Stars feat Mona Roukachi rendition), which was originally released on the album "Eclectric" in 2010. SOS Overdose performed by Leaether Strip is like a roller ride. In a slow, dignified way the artist gradually shatters the original version, thus creating a completely different song.
The album is worth attention and a closer look at its contents. Diversified in sound, introduces to a truly optimistic mood.
