Brainstorm

VINYL FORMAT. Brainstorm is a split album from Steve Moore and Majeure (aka A.E.Paterra), both founding members of renowned sci-fi prog-rock duo Zombi. Think of it as an alternate reality version of Outkast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below - a world where instead of beautiful women, expensive clothes and futuristic cars, we get transcendent aliens, expensive synthesizer, and futuristic cars.
Side A finds Steve Moore infusing heavy doses of John Carpenter-inspired ghostly synth fog into the early 80s sci-fi film scores that made Vangelis a household name. In other words, it's four more examples of what Steve Moore does better than anyone since the above mentioned pioneers.
Side B features a single epic side-long 20-minutes piece by Majeure consisting of three movements: an exploratory ambient first act, followed by a Tangerine Dream-worthy synth workout, and culminating in a mid-tempo prog-rock outro that recalls Zombi's Escape Velocity album for 2011.
