"Once upon a time in a far distant land, a land where the only colors of life were black and white, a land where laughs and smiles were forbidden and where clowns were sent to dungeons, a land where life had to obey strict rules and where amusement was controlled by a militia, lived a little girl, Eleanor."

 

Timecode presents the bright new spark of the psychedelic night scene: Principles of Flight. After the world-wide acclaim for their first album, Night Time Lullabies (2006 BooM! Records), Principles of Flight have decided to further explore the idea behind this release, and work on an extraordinary concept album entitled Chaos Opera.

 

Remy, 24, and Pierre, 26, have developed a unique blend of tech-trance rhythms, psychedelic groove, and night time landscapes which can best be described as "psytechno", and which has been praised by trancers around the world. As new ambassador of the prestigious South African label Timecode, Principles of Flight have reached an incredible level of production and composed a true masterpiece which goes far beyond just music.

 

With almost two year of intensive design, Chaos Opera is far more mature than its predecessor. It tells the story of Eleanor and Edward, two twins living in a colorless world, and the incredible journey which Edward undertakes to look for his sister in the Land of the Dead. A whole world came out of the imaginations of Pierre, Remy, and Nicolas Delort, the artist behind Chaos Opera's visual universe.

Chaos Opera comes in a luxury digipack triptych with a virtuoustically illustrated 24 page booklet which contains both English and Japanese translations of Pierre Delort's original Chaos Opera story.

I would like to point out that 2 different versions of this album will be released.

 

 

CD Version - Released 24th April

contains 12tracks (all the tracks mixed togheter)

 

 

Digital Version [Extended Versions] - Released 28th April on Beatport

contains 8tracks (meant for Dj's)

 

 

Basicly the extended versions contains only the 8 dancefloor tracks of the album, and we have made them longer in the begining and at the end so that they can be mixed much more smothly.

 

Only 4days before the CD version is released :posford:

Just given this a quick once over & I like what I have heard so far. It sounds like a perfect progression from the first album. It still has that great story like atmosphere with nice contemporary touches and is pretty dark without ever being dark psy if you know what I mean. It is very different from Nighttime lullabies though, more chaotic, more in fitting with Timecode (which is a compliment:)).

 

I hope to write down some longer thoughts soon!

This is the best thing I have heard this year! By a long way too.

As a fan of downtempo this is really something. I have only heard it 4 or 5 times but my god it's great.

Loving it! :):wub:

Wow, this album is fucking amazing! It's way beyond Nightime lullabies, which I found quite dull to be honest. This is a different beast all together: Dark, funky, hard, fun and INTENSE is how I would describe this album.

 

Hats of to POF for this one! :posford:

Listened to the samples and sorry guys, but this sounds like crap.

Why am I not surprised by that comment?

 

Jeez, is there any mod to kick & ban this sad person? Cinos was at least funny in his negativism, but this guy seems to be just stupid...

To the contrary I think you guys are stupid.

 

How is this good? Please enlighten me. There's a loud dirty beat. All the sounds sound unpolished and noisy from the samples. Maybe it would shake your dancefloors or something but it's got little musical merit beyond that. It sounds like a regression from music 10 years ago tbh.
