Our Take

In the vast, ever-changing landscape of experimental music, Robert Calvert's "Radio Egypt - Rehearsals 1987" stands out as a truly peculiar beast. Known for his work with Hawkwind, Calvert takes listeners on a whirlwind journey through electronic soundscapes and cosmic poetry.

From the opening track, "Spaceship," it's clear that Calvert is not afraid to push the boundaries of what can be achieved with a microphone and a synthesizer. The eerie, otherworldly sounds that emanate from the speakers are both hypnotic and disorienting, leaving listeners grasping for solid ground.

As the album progresses, tracks like "Egypt" and "Dream" showcase Calvert's ability to create a sense of unease and wonder simultaneously. The ethereal melody lines and haunting vocals transport listeners to a realm where time and space have no meaning.

But it's not all doom and gloom on "Radio Egypt." Tracks like "Love" and "Star" offer moments of pure joy and exuberance, reminding us that even in the darkest corners of the universe, there is still beauty to be found.

Overall, "Radio Egypt - Rehearsals 1987" is a mind-bending journey through the outer reaches of the sonic galaxy. Calvert's unique blend of avant-garde experimentation and cosmic lyricism is a testament to his enduring legacy in the world of music. So buckle up, dear listeners, and prepare to be taken on a wild ride through the strange and wonderful world of Robert Calvert.
