Magdalena Solis are a two-piece outfit from Brussels providing ecstatic hallucinatory stuff in the vein of the Kosmische Musik. A debut EP Lady of the Wild Things was released in 2010, followed by a first full length Hesperia in 2011. It all started as a movie project and their music remains both a sonic and visual experience.
A series of smoldering slow build space drone epics, heavily layered landscapes of swirling synths, wheezing organs, skittery percussion, lush warm sonic swells, all wreathed in thick swaths of serious psych guitar, the sound constantly shifting from tranquil and dreamlike, to blown out and druggy/droney and way tripped out, heady and hypnotic and easily some of the best kaleidoscopic kosmische space/drone/psych we've heard.

This is extremely hypnotic and freaky stuff that will mess up your head with fear and ancient, secret psychedelics! When you put this album on in some suitably remote location on a dark winter night under powerful magic potion there will be no return to the normal anymore.
