frequency13 Maestros of blues-forward psych rock strike again with a 14 track instrumental beaut Favorite track: Sediment Swing.

Weirdo Shrine Pretty Lighting’s approach is a gentle, subtle, layer building work, where they seduce you into their song’s small little environment in such a vivid way that it feels like you can live there for a while. Most of the sounds are linked to rhythm and blues and old time western folk, but Pretty Lightning manage to meld them together in such a way that they become their own little entities. -Weirdo Shrine Favorite track: Gewgaw For Beginners.

"German Duo create desert inspired soundtrack for the mind.
Dust Moves is desert exotica, conjuring images that are earthbound and cosmic in equal measure"
PROG MAGAZINE

"...western, desert blues, dusty psychedelic vibes, cool beats and trippy meanderings. Pretty Lightning provided me with an awesome soundtrack. This is great late-night music, driving music, or just kicking it, relaxing on the couch with the headphones on with one’s preferred mind-altering substance music."
THE SLEEPING SHAMAN

"... I wouldn’t be the first to liken some of Dust Moves to Morricone, and sure, “Powdermill” has some of that Dollars-style reverb and “The Secret is Locked Inside” lays out a subtle nighttime threat in its rattlesnake shaker, but these ideas are bent and shaped to Pretty Lightning‘s overarching purpose, and even with 14 songs, the fact that the album only runs 43 minutes should tell you that even as they seem to head right into the great unknown wilderness of intent, they never dwell in any single position for too long, and are in no danger of overstaying their welcome. Sometimes experiments work...."
THE OBELISK

"Dust Moves is more of an exploration than a statement, with instruments bent out of shape in the quest to discover new sounds. As guitars lick away gently in front of native drums, this music is timeless. Gentle drones add weight while distorted space noise swoops in like vultures circling, never threatening directly but hinting of otherworldy malice...

about

Pretty Lightning Saarbrücken, Germany

"These two pals from a small town in Germany have hit on an honestly impressive variation of Delta blues. When they summon a spooky drone, it’s been likened to the Amon Duul II hippy shake, but I hear something closer to Junior Kimbrough in its composure and hypnosis. They’ll hang on a single bobbling lick for a long time, and when it changes up, it’s both traditional and unexpected." ... more

There are so many outstanding tracks on this record that it is quite challenging to choose one that stands out. My choice will likely change in a day or two as I immerse myself into this hypnotic musical experience. TSOD best illustrates how well the Swedish collective mixes psychedelia with Eastern sounds, and I love how the flute-which recalls for me Jethro Tull's Ian Anderson's pioneering use of the instrument-punctuates the overall sound of this track. A thoroughly immersive experience! bartonim

So...Grateful Dead, Gong and Can , set up shop and start jamming. Hawkwind shows up amd says, "Oh, this is lovely, let's really mess with minds." Wonderful jams. Pour Dampness definitely hints to the Dead...Shrinks has Gong and Can written all over the liner notes until the 10 minute mark...then Hawkwind blows through the rest.Great psych jams! dgcirkus
