The Legendary Pink Dots

Way way back in the early days I used to say a lot about ‘The Terminal Kaleidoscope’ , a concept comparing the fragile planet we live on to a drowning human being with life flashing before his or her eyes, the images constantly accelerating. It’s 2024, a little over 2 decades since the turn of this unbearably turbulent century and the concept appears to have become an unlikely soap opera where we are the cast. Let’s hang in there…..

SO LONELY IN HEAVEN – THE CREATION
‘So Lonely in Heaven’ is The Legendary Pink Dots’ second album since the World stopped for a Global Pandemic.
With members scattered across three countries and two continents, our guilty confession is that quite a few Air Miles were consumed in its creation.
Ideas were spun across Cyberspace for months, but the magic happened collectively in small spaces with the tape running.
SO LONELY IN HEAVEN – THE MESSAGE
The machine is everything we are. It sees everything, hears everything, knows everything and feeds, speeds, drinks us down, spits us out – we lost control of it at the instant of its conception.
You may cough, curse and die, but the machine will resurrect you without the flaws, at your peak, smiling from a screen, bidding someone in a lonely room to join you.
It’s an invitation from Heaven, where anyone can be anything they want to be, but it’s a Nation of One.
You’ll be everything we are. You’ll be a shadow of yourself. You’ll repeat yourself- endlessly. You’ll be desperate for some kind of explanation .
You’ll be lonely. So very lonely… 
 
Orbit Service 
 
Orbit Service drifts into spellbinding new terrain with Leave For Good, an album that expands upon Randall Frazier’s deeply captivating inward explorations. Since the arrival of 2021’s Dreamless LP, Orbit Service has built upon Frazier’s partnership with guitar player and Legendary Pink Dots cohort Erik Drost. The result is a billowing atmospheric collection of songs that plumb the depths of isolation, loss, and an awareness of time slipping away—accelerating out of control.
Frazier has spent years collaborating with the likes of Mark Spybey of Dead Voices on Air, Kim G. Hansen of Antenne, and Edward Ka-spel of the Legendary Pink Dots. 
Drost, who first appeared on Orbit Service’s 2021 album Dreamless, has since become a full-fledged member of Orbit Service, bringing new depth and cohesion to the music.
Throughout the album, songs such as “Beyond Beyond,” “Try Not To Be Blue,” and “Sleepwalk,” unfold like meditations on the fragility of existence. They are vast and atmospheric, filled with droning textures and lingering melodies that resonate with the dreamlike essence of the LPDs, while pushing Frazier’s musical vision into deeper and more ethereal realms of melancholy. Spectral violin and viola rhythms, courtesy of Devothcka’s Tom Hagerman, blend seamlessly with Frazier’s voice and electronic textures carrying the ambiance far beyond the bounds of waking life.
