Psychick Warriors Ov Gaia - Beyond

Artist: Psychick Warriors Ov Gaia
Title: Beyond
Release: Maenad three track 12"
Label: KK Records
Year: 1991

The mythic third track. The Maenad CD releases contain two tracks. They show track one as 'Ov The Maenad', and track two as 'The Valley', with 'Beyond' printed just under that. This has created much confusion as most believe the second track to be titled 'The Valley Beyond'. It's not. It's just 'The Valley'. The third track, 'Beyond', was only released on the original three track 12" (seen in the video). The title should never have been printed on the CD sleeves. To make matter even more confusing, Discogs shows a twenty minute version of 'Beyond', which may or may not be correct. It's very possible with PWOG that two seperate versions were released, but the version used to make this video was not twenty minutes long (and it's clearly sourced from a vinyl release - the only place this track exists). It was only about ten minutes and twenty seconds and I edited off a little ambient bit at the end to get it down to ten. Regarding the tracks; 'Ov The Maenad' is a thousand years of pagan hippies dancing at sunset to blaring trumpets of joy (or something like that). 'The Valley' takes it into the cold; holding on to just the beat, the 303 line and very little else. Tribal minimalism. 'Beyond' starts off in a recognizable fashion as it's now the third time you've heard this track, but then it takes it late night. At :40 some part of the track begins to be looped backwards; from 6:30 on there's a new synth chord that pops up a few times; and the beat is kept solid and moving up until the 8:50 second mark. Definitely three seperate tracks. No track titled 'The Valley Beyond'.
