The Entheogenic Experience

Entheogenic is a psychill ( psychedelic ambient ) band consisting of Piers Oak-Rhind and Helmut Glavar that produce a variety of music with the psychedelic genre.

The use of both eastern and western vocals, tribal sounding instruments, as well as an array of synthesizers built the foundation of the Entheogenic sound. The often cite the works of predecessors Shpongle as a major influence on the birth of the band and their early sound. Their epic soundscapes manipulated through sound effects and catalystic sonic experimentation have a semi-classical feel to them. Entheogenic also records and uses a large amount of "natural samples" - water, human voices, animals, etc.

In 1999, Entheogenic was one of the two major psybient projects (the other being Shpongle) whose experimentation into sonic atmospheres influenced the psychedelic electronic scene. Entheogenic's first release "Entheogenic" recounts the tale of an Ayahuasca journey, with layered trance melodies and texturally rich arrangements. Such drug induced tales were popular in the psychedelic music at the time and the album became a instant hit. Three labels bid for the release: the former UK based Flying Rhino, the German based Cosmophilia and the Spanish 3D Vision. The album was eventually released on 3D Vision Records.

In 2003, their second album "Spontaneous Illumination" released on c.o.r.n. recordings was the first psy-chill album ever to make it to number 1 in the German Chill-out charts. Their first two albums were noted for their epic thematic lengthy tunes. Both albums feature the work of Sound Engineer Glenn Schick (Morcheeba, Ludacris etc.) In 2005, "Dialogue of the Speakers" (Chillcode Records), continued the success of its predecessor, and went straight to Number 1 in the German charts, where it remained for 24 weeks. "Golden Cap" (Chillcode Records) was released in 2006. G.C. was received by their now quite large following with a love-hate attitude.

The last album to be released was 2008's "Flight of The Urubus" which was also meet with mixed reviews due to the inclusion of jazz influences within some of the tunes.
