The UK’s cosmic, psychedelic-funk ensemble issue their second albumon maverick producer Madlib’s label, Madlib Invazion.The Heliocentrics’ albums are all confounding pieces of work. Drawing equally fromthe funk universe of James Brown, the disorienting asymmetry of Sun Ra, thecinematic scope of Ennio Morricone, the sublime fusion of David Axelrod, PierreHenry’s turned-on musique concrète, and Can’s beat-heavy Krautrock, they have –regardless of the label on which they’ve released their music - pointed the waytowards a brand new kind of psychedelia, one that could only come from a band ofaccomplished musicians who were also obsessive music fans. Drummer MalcolmCatto and bassist Jake Ferguson are the Heliocentrics’ masterminds and producers,and they are obsessive weirdos in today’s musical climate, searching, progressivehumans who are often out-of-time with current trends.They have been playing together for nearly two decades and their collective drive isto find an individual voice. The Heliocentrics search for it in an alternate galaxy wherethe orbits of funk, jazz, psychedelic, electronic, avant-garde and “ethnic” music allrevolve around “The One.” With Madilb’s label Madlib Invazion for Telemetric Sounds,the Heliocentrics have returned to develop their epic vision of psychedelic funk,while exploring the possibilities created by their myriad influences – Latin, African,and more.
