The Downbeat Mysteries

Lucius Releases pioneering album called “ The Downbeat Mysteries” expected for special release on 9th September 2009 – 09/09/09

It’s been over 5 years since the magic of Lucius AKA Luke Harrison has released a mix CD, during which time he has been busy writing and releasing the second artist album "The Downbeat Mysteries".

The first CD album "The Five Ages of Humanity" was released back in ‘2005 and was met with great interest around the world, so there is a justified sense of expectation on what Lucius has in store for us this time around. The Downbeat Mysteries takes a unique approach in how it portrays the journey through the down tempo eclectic electric epic sounding album. The format is a mixed rhythmic & emotive scenery that impress the qualities of Pink Floyd, Lemon Jelly, Bent, Kruder & Dorfmeister, Hybrid, Global Communication, DJ Food, Cold Cut, Mr Scruff, Nightmares on Wax, Banco De Gaia, Sasha, The Crystal Method, The Avalanches, Faithless, Underworld, Aim, Filla Brazillia, De-Phazz, David Holmes, dZihan & Kamien all rolled in one & pulling together a compilation of quality & definition.

The whole mix is haunting, beautiful, subtle and at times majestic. An undeniable sense of splendour to the music here occasionally dropping in beats and stripping them away. There is a real emotional journey as they build up to the seat clenching heights of bliss and then drifts away into serene interludes.

The mixed album dishes up a surreal atmospheric soup of sound. Ambient, Downbeat, Break beat is something for which Lucius delights in producing, anyone who has heard or seen a recent Lucius DJ set will know that the esoteric guru does not confine himself to any particular genre and tend to cherry pick the best atmospheric cuts from across the world and the music spectrum.

All tracks are weaved together with interludes & fine moments of ambience in the landscape, Lucius programming and mixing is standing out, and combined with the collaboration with twice Grammy award winning Pink Floyd mastering engineer. The Downbeat Mysteries project is testament to the mastering skills of Pink Floyds mastering engineer at Tubemasters. When you add the breadth of music on offer from the album, we are left with something that will at the very least satisfy a broad spectrum of fans, and perhaps even open up their taste to yet more artists bold enough to stretch the imagination of the audiences.

The Album is available on all major distribution & internet radio platforms & special CD orders can be made via the home of the British Producer at Brain Bomb Productions www.brainbomb.com
