The Heartwood Institute - Secret Rites LP Polytechnic Youth

sees a first larger scale, vinyl release for the mighty Heartwood Institute. , Jonathan Sharp’s esteemed HI project deservedly receives a wider scale outing here. Entitled Secret Rites, imagine if you can, an unholy collision of Throbbing Gristle style proto industrial, Kosmische / kraut grooves and 70’s folk horror soundtracks. Secret Rites delves deep into a series of forgotten occult documentaries from the late sixties and early seventies; The Power Of The Witch, Witchcraft ’70 and The Legend Of The Witches. Focusing on the superstars of the period: Alex and Maxine Sanders, self appointed King and Queen of the Witches. A hauntological dive into a time when the occult was making inroads into mainstream media, truly the Age of Aquarius. A wonderfully free-flowing, evolving record that grows with each listen and a fine start to the New Year for both artist and label.
