This Iasos Documentary Is New Age Synthesizer Bliss
Did you know if you double the frequency of joy, you get ecstacy?
And if you were to play ecstacy up the octave, you get Rapture? Neither did we, until we stumbled upon this awesome documentary on Iasos. Shot in 1979, the documentary features an extensive interview with one of the most beloved new age musicians of his time, including him discussing all the cosmic beams of inspiration that are at work in his music. Talk of beings from higher dimensions are interspersed with live performances from Iasos, plus all the slow fades, dissolves and crass green-screening you’ve come to expect from any worthy ’70s documentary.
