Forever ambitious and eccentric in his output, Space Dimension Controller presents The Pathway To Tiraquon6, a double twelve inch prelude to the full debut album promised next year. Preceded by an exquisitely detailed press release that explains the concept behind the music, you don't really need to read it to fully engage in what is a sumptuous ride through cinematic hi tech jazz. The ease with which the Belfast Sun Ra veers between twinkling soundscapes and heavily compressed, jerking techno ("Usurper" being a certified highlight) is naturally very impressive and bodes well for the album proper, which is given a sneak preview in "Closing Titles".
