Pursuing my mission to bring back forgotten artists A Trip Outside is an experimental project from some electronic music producers from Norway. This is AFAIK one of the very first "modern" (as in post-Tangerine Dream) dark beatless chill-out albums out there, pretty similar in style with Juno's Luci-ana (except it was made a year before it, just to have an idea on who's copying whom ). Anyway, this is DARK, I mean the kind of dark that will make you want to throw yourself in front of your train to end your mysery. Can't really describe this track-by-track, IMO this kind of music has to be listened to as one big 70-minute track (preferably when stoned...) to really get into it, otherwise you just end up pressing the fast forward button until you're at the end. Still, when you're in a certain mood, this music can do miracles IMO. 3/5
