Soul Jazz Records are releasing three new albums from the Australian psych/funk/krautrock group Brown Spirits. All three albums are super-limited one-off special coloured vinyl pressings of just 500 copies each that will all be deleted on the day of release.

These albums were originally released in long-deleted very short run-editions - either self-released in Australia or on a small German psych label. No copies of Brown Spirits #2 or Brown Spirits #3 are currently available anywhere in the world. Both of Brown Spirits two earlier releases for Soul Jazz Records, ‘Cosmic Seeds’ and ‘Solitary Transmissions’, are also sold out on vinyl.

Brown Spirits are a super-heavy psychedelic three-piece band from the suburbs of Melbourne, Australia, home to an ever-growing local music scene that includes Amyl and the Sniffers, King Gizzard and The Lizard Wizard, Tropical Fuck Storm and more.

Brown Spirits play raw energetic super-charged psychedelic rock heavily influenced by krautrock, free-jazz and deep funk music from the 1970s that gives them a truly unique and highly-addictive sound. The group record and mix their own music to ¼-inch analogue tape at home maintaining a strictly DIY-ethic. Brown Spirits are Tim Wold, Agostino Soldati and Ash Bushcombe.

REVIEWS

‘Heady brew of krautrock, psych, funk and avant -jazz’ UNCUT

'You can make a compelling case that over the past 10 years or so Melbourne has been the most fertile city in the world for new music. Brown Spirits have charted their own distinct path from Melbourne to the outer limits of the Krautrock- psych-deep funk'. MOJO

‘An unforgettable sonic journey that stands out in today’s psychedelic landscape’ Juno
