Corum’s Web of Midnight traces an astral cartography and psychic linkage between the psychosexual laboratories of Wilhelm Reich’s Orgonon in Rangely, Maine all the way to the Mount Teide Volcano on the Canary Islands. Different facets of the album were recorded in these charged locations causing the music to erupt with an orgasmic and volcanic force, a subconscious blast and discharge of etheric earth energy channeled through shimmering electronica.

Babbling voices that speak in the babel tongues of diverse holy spirits bring the listener into a sacred communion with the spiders of the void, spiders who weave their webs beyond the mauve zone in a realm of outerplanetary darkness. As the record spins so does the silk. Translucent
sonic threads connect across vast distances in the dreamtime where they each receive stellar vibrations, now penetrating the earth from the deepest recesses of space.

This space music could be considered dark ambient or kosmiche, and like the distant cosmic reaches of the universe it is suitably “out there” to please the discerning tastes of brave psychonautic listeners. Seekers who have previously used Corum’s music as fuel for their own remote viewing reconnaissance missions will find this outing as entrancing as his other explorations. Web of Midnight is a soundtrack for inward travel, destinations unknown.

Even as the music voyages across the celestial empyrean of space, he opens up new territory, diving downwards into the underworld where the mysteries of Orpheus (poet, musician, prophet) are encountered in their cavernous depths. Here the Orphic lyre is a synthesizer. Here it is a collection of psychotronic modules who route electricity to the point where it tingles with lucid scintillation. This is a third ear music awakening the inner senses to subtle vibrations.

The cover artwork for the album was painted by Jon Lomberg, a close collaborator with Carl Sagan, and the artist who worked as design director for the Golden Record included on the Voyager spacecraft, that most epic of messages in a bottle. The sounds and imagery presented here are another kind of transmission to and from the cosmic ocean in which we all swim. Listening to this album is another way to become aware of the cosmos within us, and the mysterious way distant locations on earth can be connected together through the applied science
of sound.
