Natalie Rose Lebrecht Holy Prana Open Game

A stunning arrangement of visionary, symphonic songs overflowing with moments of bliss, wonder, and profundity, augmented by contributions from members of Dirty Three. From the teenage 4-track tapes she made as Greenpot Bluepot to the recent albums under her own name, Natalie Rose LeBrecht’s recordings have been fascinating dispatches from her progressively deeper dives into her gorgeous, weird, wildly idiomatic aesthetic. Holy Prana Open Game is a jewel of intensely personal cosmic music, created through a remarkable process of openness, craftiness, addition and subtraction. It belongs to a tradition of albums that document a rich, meditative sound as it rises up to join the world outside its creators’ minds: Alice Coltrane’s Universal Consciousness, Harmonia’s Musik von Harmonia, Philip Glass’s North Star, Talk Talk’s Laughing Stock.
