ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING?   Yes!...first and only...

Ltd. to 250 hand-numbered copies only...it sold out on advance orders alone (in fact the label had orders for way more than 250...but there was, nor will be, any re-pressing though!) and thus it was deleted on the day of release.

Not at all surprising when you have a listen...it's all moog, mellotron, ARP 2600 synth and effects, which is what you'd be hoping for, but it's also riddled with repetitive melody in there too, for full hypnotic effect...it's a golden gem for fans of Klaus Schulze, Konrad Schnitzler, Kluster, Edgar Froese, and the like...comes with all six paper/card inserts.

Track listing:

 1. EAGLE BONE VISION

2. CELESTIAL COMMUNICATIONS

3. PRISM OF THE PRESENT

4. CREATION OF TIME

5. INGESTION OF THE UNIVERSE

Here's a wee ramble below just to get you tuned in to the angle of the label: 

"This one’s a real tasty way to kick off a new label. ‘Deep Distance’ was created as a side project to The Great Pop Supplement label, a way of releasing GPS head Dom’s primary love of all things motorik and kosmische themed…?

The first few releases are broadly based on the killer series of Konrad Schnitzler private press / gallery edition series of LPs from 1974. Borrowing the deliberately minimal single colour themes for sleeves and labels with all release details contained over a series of inserts and stickers.

With some fabulous releases currently being discussed and negotiated, the series in the meantime kicks off with the incredible first volume of 2 planned Kosmonaut full lengths. ?

Released in a blue-cover edition of 250 LPs on vinyl only, Kosmonaut is the brainchild of Texan Patrick R. Park, whose stunning cassette and cdr releases on his own "Ethereal Mother" label point at some holy kosmische collision of Schulze, Froese, Ash Ra / Gottsching, and latter day explorers Expo 70, Jonas Reinhardt, and Mist, amongst others."

I'd just like to add that it truly is an absolute MASTERPIECE of kosmische space-rock. It'll be the stuff of legend in years to come.?
