DOM (krautrock, psych space rock, acid folk / Germany)

Biography:

Dom is a quartet formed by a multi-national musical collective (with members from Germany, Poland and Hungary). Their unique album called "Edge of Time" was released in a relative discretion in 1970. The music reaches the listener into a space, acoustic "trip" dominated by guitars and percussions. Introspect electric organs parts, bass "drones", simplistic "weird" electronic effects are added to the mix in order to deliver an unforgettable psychedelic "voyage". The concept of the album is based upon a bad "trip", its consequences on mind and perception of time.

Compare to early Pink Floyd, Brave New World, Kalacakra, Tangerine Dream, Brainticket (Celestial Ocean), Emtidi (Saat), Popol Vuh, Between, Ash Ra Tempel, Cluster, the quieter and more downtempo moments in Agitation Free and Amon Duul II etc and generally to the genres of krautrock, progressive electronic, psychedelic/space rock, and acid folk.
