Editorial Reviews

Vinyl LP pressing. Darkside is the collaborative duo of critically acclaimed electronic artist Nicolas Jaar and guitarist/composer Dave Harrington. Darkside summon a hybrid of electronic music, psychedelic rock, and dance floor techno with the sort of artistic depth and breadth for which the term "progressive" was coined. Darkside's first full-length album released on Nico's own Other People label in conjunction with Matador Records is called Psychic. Darkside's Psychic is a watershed moment for the duo, a quantum leap forward from their 3-song debut, 2011's Darkside EP.

Favorite album of 2013

Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2013

Verified Purchase

My favourite album of 2013 is Psychic by Darkside. It's electro-dream-sound scape rock with enough ProSounds twiddles, blips and hiss to make it psychedelia. It's also just a good place to escape: electro-trance that, one expects, is played at an after-, after-party in the Balearics or Goa or wherever else rich people go to dance their headaches off.

Like all good albums it's made up from a patchwork of influences that add up to something bright and new. Bits of Psychic are like Can's Future Days dissembled by XX or Young Marble Giants. The guitar parts float in from P-Funk's magnificent Maggot Brain while most of it is re-imagined `90s and `00s rock-tronica (think Underworld, Aphex Twin and Portishead rather than Moby or Norman Cook).

A few of the tracks can only really be described as odd (Greek Light and Sitra) but when the album gets going and back to the beat it really rocks. For me there's been nothing quite as interesting, musically, this year.

IMHO, Psychic and particularly the key tracks Golden Arrow, Paper Trails and Freak, Go Home are the latest entrants into the pantheon of space-rock. Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon is the obvious reference here and Psychic builds on that some 40 years later. While the mechanics, the instruments and the voices are different the album art and the fragmentation suggest space, disconnection and disorientation. Like Floyd, Darkside's sound scapes are either otherworldly and ethereal or homely, comfortable and numb. But, unlike Floyd, Psychic seems to offer closure and, through that, satisfaction and contentment. If all rock music is about release the perfect audience for this album are moon-miners, home exhausted but happy after a hard day scrabbling for meteors.

Darkside of a creative diamond...Shine on!

Reviewed in the United States on November 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

Been putting off buying this CD after having it on my wish list for over a year just to come back several times to hear if its experimental soundscape holds up. IT DOES!

Listened to the entire CD in one sitting. Couldn't help but hear influences from Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon" & "Wish You Were Here" except maybe if Syd Barret had been at the creative helm before he became ill.

A lot of current experimental "find a sound" meandering I've heard of this music genre don't have much imagination and originality in their melody structure and choice of sounds whether natural or synthetic except this one. It does stand out. I'ld say Darkside's "Psychic" is on par with Mouse On Mars, another very creative group of similar experimental ambient electronic music, except "Psychic" being just a bit more spooky for lack of a better descriptor. It would fit right in played at a Halloween party.

There's a lot of attention to detail in each strange distortion to familiar sounds flowing in and out of the melodies such as a sampling and looping of a tail end flourish from one of Harrington's gorgeous sounding guitar licks that lingers very quietly like a distant siren in the background. Just beautiful. This album made me want to pay attention what was to come next. That's a sign of well crafted music.

Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2014

Verified Purchase

This is a tasty offering of pure, stereophonic, audiophile-friendly electronic, warm psychedelia. It has been touted as an "alternative" Electronica- based companion piece to Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon, spellbinding and trippy. The vocalist has a semi-falsetto voice that is evocative of Sting, which doesn't quite match the drugged-out funk and prog-rock of the instrumental passages. But it grows on you after a few listens. It is music that begs to be paid attention on a decent sounds system, either as capper to a late-night party/gathering, or as a nice way to comedown after a hard day at work with nice beverage in hand.

I don't own much techno/trance style music however I thought I'd give this a shot and glad I did. Full of spatial sound textures. Great groove that ebb and flows through out the album. The individual songs flow so tightly they sound more like movements within a song cycle. It's dark with a hypnotic groove and ethereal vocals that takes you to great places that you want to explore over and over. There is so much sound/music that it begs you to listen critically however it's just as easy to sit back and drift in and out of the pieces or even use as background music to read or be creative to. Will be listening to this for sometime.

Best album purchase I've made in a while

Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2014

Verified Purchase

Best album purchase I've made in a while. Buy this if you're a patient listener with an appreciation for long-form development of layering. Beware, however, that a track from this album - when dropped at the wrong time, like during a house party - could really be a buzz-kill. This is more of an ambient mix of electronic, jazz, rock, and blues mixed with some ethereal vocals that's best suited for studying/solitude (and probably also for some mind-altering recreational drugs).

WONDERFUL album! This double LP is beautiful

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2016

Verified Purchase

WONDERFUL album! This double LP is beautiful. Just an FYI, it is a 45. I put it on as a 33 initially and was wondering why it sounded off! I love this album so much, and am sad that Darkside (Nicholas Jaar and Dave Harrington) are no longer making music together. I was lucky enough to see them live, but this is the next best thing!

This is music which is created by two individuals who are doing what they love on their own terms and pushing their creative limits. This album sounds like these two musicians shared like minded interests and while recording the project challenged each other to go further. The end result is an amazing piece of work that sounds like nothing you've ever heard. Just buy it.

I just don't care for that nick cave voice I don't know why I don't mind it from nick cave. somebody said eric clapton plus nic jaar which is weird for an album by nic jaar and a guitarist dave harrington. wait, dave harrington IS eric clapton? but there you go, nic jaar's carefully conceived compositions along classical (rock) guitar lines sort of. it is top notch.

The 5 stars is for the music.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 6, 2022

Verified Purchase

Just came across this artist from a conversation on the internet and the artist has put a lot of thought and imagination into the music and is sonically good.
Unfortunately there seems to be a lot of can't be botheredness in the artwork,no booklet, just a hard piece of card for the cover.
5 star's are for the music...
What the hell for the packaging.
