Pete Namlook & Bill Laswell - Psychonavigation / Limited Box Edition (5CD)

Infinite Fog Productions is thrilled to announce the long-awaited reissue of the legendary Psychonavigation series by Bill Laswell and Pete Namlook in a 5CD Box format!

From 1994 to 2002, the brilliant producers Bill Laswell and Pete Namlook released a series of five works titled Psychonavigation — a rare gem for fans of heavy ambient collaboration. Masterfully playing with genres and refusing to be confined by any boundaries, they were mutually in awe of each other's talents and delivered numerous significant projects, including the iconic Outland, The Dark Side Of The Moog, and of course, Psychonavigation. This stunning palette of musical styles ranges from Space, Dark, and Drone Ambient to Electro and cosmic Downtempo, through dense layers of Dub to almost industrial, mechanical techno spaces. These five albums are like personal spacecraft traveling at faster-than-light speeds, carrying five keys to eternity and infinity.

The reissue anthology comes in a 5CD box set, with each disc housed in its own envelope, featuring a brand-new design and a complete set of audio materials. The package also includes an exclusive poster with an essay about the project, written by Bill Laswell in Winter 2024.

Now, 30 years after the release of the first part of Psychonavigation, the anthology is available in a single box!

More about Psychonavigation: The Psychonavigation series, originally released between 1993 and 1999, marked a milestone in the world of ambient and electronic music. Each album in this series represents a unique journey into soundscapes, creating deep and immersive atmospheric textures. The creative genius of Bill Laswell combined with the innovative approach of Pete Namlook made this series a remarkable achievement in electronic music.

• CD I: Psychonavigation I (1994): The beginning of the collaboration between Bill Laswell and Peter Namlook. Melancholic and introspective compositions, the endless solitude of space.
• CD II: Psychonavigation II (1995): The second album continues the exploration of atmospheric sounds and electronic landscapes. This release features more complex textures and more clearly structured compositions while maintaining the characteristic ambient and experimental electronic elements of the series.
• CD III: Psychonavigation III (1997): The third album delves deeper into atmospheric sound and offers even more diverse sonic palettes. The mutual understanding between the musicians became even deeper, and it seems that on this album they found their unique language of communication. Rich and multilayered compositions where Laswell and Namlook continue to explore the boundaries of ambient and electronic music. Bold decisions on "Reentry", "Dark Matter", and "Event Horizon", boundless experimentation, and creative freedom.
• CD IV: Psychonavigation IV (1999): The fourth album continues the theme of deep and introspective soundscapes, but with the addition of new elements and experimental approaches. The sounds become even more complex and mesmerizing, faster-than-light speed, and worlds of other dimensions.
• CD V: Psychonavigation V (2002): The fifth album concludes the series with a focus on a more structured approach to ambient music creation. The endless depth and cosmic melancholy remain but with a more pronounced sense of completion. This is the fifth key to eternity… not a landing, but a final transition to a new universe.
