Description : in 1976 we bought an old Mercedes Bus (our former drummer and I) then traveled to Morocco,bought some classical concert guitars in Malaga and took the ship from Algeciras to Ceuta visiting all medinas in Morocco .......from Fes,Meknes to Marrakesh etc. and back again........we had an old tape deck in the bus and listened nearly every day to Frank Zappa,Chick Corea,Herbie Hancock and especially Weather Report and all the other great fusion stuff that was actually produced in those year......this is an attempt to capture a bit of the flavor of this 3 month trip when everything seemed to be very easy...........an old track composition digitally rerecorded in 2008 Co Psychotropic Circle

Description : fast jazz funk track and the first use of loops that were not created by the Circle but i think they were the best inspiration and also the best loops of Ernest (Mr.E).....Mr.very big E....thanks for sharing ......i´v downloaded two of them and they fit perfectly.......Co 2008 Psychotropic Circle

Description : Erik Satie(1866-1925) has always been one of my favorite French composers beside Claude Debussy or Maurice Ravel.........i´v played this composition for piano solo a long time ago when i started learning instruments,but now i decided to give it a new orchestral color as a Tribute to Erik Satie..........a piece for piano solo without piano......i nearly did the whole track with the kontakt 2.0 vst in midi recording and tried to keep the dynamics of the original composition.......most of you will recognize this beautiful tune.........it´s one of the most used tracks for commercials and advertising......but who knows the author ? A genious of the last century......Erik Satie played,arranged and recorded 2008 by Psychotropic Circle........

Description : vocals and lyrics by MsKidd......all other instruments and composition by the Circle.........after all the smooth stuff this a more dirty basic song with dirty guitar,jazz funk beat and outside changes......some fx cinematic inserts.......just like a little video clip .........Co Psychotropic Circle feat.

Description : a short raf mix with Abhi S.V. and James Carver who did all the lyrics and vocal parts of this track.......arrangement and composition by Psychotropic Circle........no weird jazz solos or confusion parts in here....kept it clean as a pop song to feature these beautiful voices....the track develops from a strange to a smooth atmosphere with some funk and orchestral elements..........nevertheless it´s a sort of rap style so it appears in that genre..........Co Psychotropic Circle feat. James Carver and Abhi S.V. 2008.......enjoy

Description : based on a 22 Catch acapella called "Fire in the Air", i´v only added the basics like some modal jazz chords,a bass line, drums with lots of fill ins and the arrangement.........and one trippy solo part for a contrast ....... old skool song structure with some fake breaks, clean stuff to feature his cool and deep outside rappin voice..........so enjoy Co 2008 Psychotropic Circle and 22 Catch

Description : yesterday summer started for all people living on the northern part of this planet...........all things will be easy and winter trouble is over.......so this is our tribute for this wonderful season when nights are short but nobody wants to fall a sleep ........thought that a latino jazz feel fits perfect for this period of time..........so enjoy riding your motorbyke , surf on the ocean or whatever you like to do cause it won´t last forever......Co Psychotropic Circle Of Lower Frequencies 2008

Description : a jungle atmosphere and lots of mosquito attack complete the tropic fever.......composed 2002 and now rearranged and remixed in audio logic with diverse special effects,fill ins and solo parts ......prefer the drum´n bass genre because of the fast beat,although there are a lot of fusion and jazz elements in this track,so enjoy .....Co Psychotropic Circle Of Lower Frequencies 2008

Description : very tricky tune in 11/8 measure (one of my favorites) mixed with drums,bass,mallets,git,synth and lots of sound effects..........confusion will be perfect when the totally syncopated main theme
appears (influenced by Michael Brecker and a little bit of Frank Zappa).......i´m kidding,but
i love odd grooves.......the more complicated the better.........so please,don´t kill me,but enjoy

Description : three bass tracks and one drum loop,bass track 1 was for normal comping, bass track 2 was for chords and harmonies (recorded with flageolet notes) cause I didn´t use any keyboards it´s easier to stay tuned and bass track 3 was for themes and improvisation (with some blues and outside scales) ........the drum loop you´ll find under Chill Out Drums 135 in my account.........all was recorded with a self - constructed 3 in 1 fretless bass......Co Psychotropic Circle 2008

Description : collaboration between De Phazz and Psychotropic Circle,composed for a song contest on mp3.com in 2003 ,we had no chance to win by 1,5 million artists ,i don´t know how many of these artists took part in this competition (but i guess a lot) , so rank 39 was not so bad in this case i think maybe......all vocal parts and trombone interludes by De Phazz , composition and all other instruments by Psychotropic Circle Co 2003..........i like these French lyrics and hope you´ll too

Description : this track consists of 5 minimalistic short stories all created with a graphic composer program "Kandinsky" ....i´ve added some synths and other instruments and remixed it in logic... the basics were recorded on Atari 1040 ST in 1990, cause i never found a PC version of this program ...but it´s great to create experimental tracks or very odd grooves...so here are 5 different graphics mixed to one composition with some additional recordings .....Co 2008 Psychotropic Circle
