Sonic Arts EP by Lunatica: A Psychedelic Punch to the Face
Alright, buckle up. If you’re into electronic music that punches your brain and leaves it twitching on the floor, Sonic Arts EP by Lunatica is your next fix. This German beast dropped in 2016 under BMSS Records, and holy hell, it’s a no-holds-barred ride through the twisted world of Psy-Trance. With just two tracks—yeah, only two—it still manages to slap harder than most full-length albums. Let’s break it down like XSI did with the mastering.
First up, “Sonic Arts”. Straight fire. The moment this track kicks in, you know you’re not dealing with some soft synth noodling. Nope. It’s sharp, chaotic, and relentless—a proper kick-to-the-skull kind of vibe. The bassline growls like an angry wolf while the layers build into this hypnotic spiral. What sticks? Those glitchy, alien-like sounds creeping in outta nowhere. They mess with your head in the best way possible. You don’t just hear “Sonic Arts”—you feel it. Like someone spiked your drink and now you’re seeing fractals or something.
Then there’s “Mundo Lisergico”, which is basically Spanish for "LSD World." And damn, does it deliver. This one’s darker, heavier, almost sinister compared to its predecessor. The intro lures you in slow, but once the beat drops? Game over. Your pulse syncs with the rhythm whether you like it or not. The acid lines are so thick they could choke a goat, and the energy never lets up. By the time it ends, you’ll either be drenched in sweat or questioning every life decision that led you here. Either way, mission accomplished.
Props where they’re due: Lupin killed it with the design. That cover art screams "psychedelic trip waiting to happen," all trippy visuals and neon madness. And yeah, shoutout to XSI for mastering this chaos into something coherent without losing its raw edge.
So, what’s the takeaway? Sonic Arts EP isn’t just another Psy-Trance release—it’s a gut punch wrapped in glitter. It reminds you why you fell in love with electronic music in the first place: because it doesn’t play nice. It fucks with your mind and makes you beg for more.
Oh, and one last thing—don’t listen to this sober. Trust me.
