On this (magic number!) 7th full length release, PSY’AVIAH creates some distance from its darker
and almost depressive roots taking us towards more joyful and positively driven atmospheres
while keeping his unique emotional and almost ghostly creative touch intact. The lyrics deal more
this time with magic, wonders and mysteries and beautifully match with the band’s characteristic
sound-mix of futuristic electro, moody trip hop, floating ambient and other groovy eurodance.
Of course there are still here some songs which defend the more “sorrowful” part of the album
and reminds us of PSY’AVIAH’s darker side: like for example “Alcubierre Drive” featuring once
again lush guest vocals by Kyoko Baertsoen (ex-HOOVERPHONIC, LUNASCAPE) and her unique
timbre fitting so well this blend of trip-hop rhythms and EBM basslines; or yet the melancholic and
moving “Looking Back” and the very expressive voice of David Chamberlin (ENTRZELLE). But the
album definitely has this kind of interstellar shining touch, offering a unique kind of modern synth
pop with an upbeat futuristic twist reinforced by another impressive intelligent selection of vocalists.
Take for example the alt-pop “Frozen” which is fusing energy and soul with stunning vocals by
Andrew Galucki, or yet the more house / 80’s e-pop approach on the dancey “Liberosis” and its
driving synth lines, club beats and awesome voice of Alvin River, the loud e-pop “Face to Face”
with Roeland van der Velde (MODEL DEPOSE), the addictive body-pop song “From another
World” with Bernard Feron (MED, COMBAT VOICE…) as well as on the album’s new mega-hits
“Not what I expected” that is a sort of frontal floor-packing track with incisive synth lines, hypnotic
grooves à la PRAGA KHAN lead by strong female vocals with attitude by Fallon Nieves.
“Seven Sorrows, Seven Stars” is an album that speaks to both body and mind. You can dance to
it all night or enjoy it in full simplicity with candles on for some positive moments with friends…
PSY’AVIAH delivers a true chef d’oeuvre full of emotional contrasts and dynamic vibes, capturing
irrational moments of life across the universe.
Tradition for PSY’AVIAH now, the album also comes out as a limited deluxe carton box edition with
a 14-track bonus CD holding album songs reinterpretations with a much more dancefloor techno /
trance oriented sonic approach for the ultimate pleasure of all PSY’AVIAH’s faithful followers
amongst clubbers and DJ’s… A very interesting mix between trance, electro, industrial. Trance
icons ETASONIC, TIM IRON and AMARTA PROJECT deliver enticing dancefloor versions fueled
with trance / 303s and saws, whilst ALEX DALLIANCE, GIRLFLESH and IMPLANT give an industrial
touch to the tracks. SKYSHIFTER (IC434 project), KONER (Atlantis 6 and Minimalistix project),
LIQUID DIVINE deliver on their side an atmospheric perspective on the remixed tracks, whilst
CUT:OFF:SKY, CYBORGDRIVE, ROOL and PEOPLE THEATRE know how to hit home with
their synthpop / electropop fueled sound.
