All God's Children Got Space is one of the more recent releases by Welsh drone artist Ian Holloway, under the guise of Psychic Space Invasion. This particular CD-R contains one long track of organ based drone. Actually, I can be rather quick about it. It's nice, but not as good as his other material.

Like I said, the track is actually one long drone, based on an organ sound. It begins softly, with a subtle pulse to it. Gradually it's enriched by more layers of the same sound, but with slight differences to give the whole a fuller sound. This method is employed more, adding lower sounds along the way. After about 10 minutes, a different tone takes over, which fades after a few minutes again, giving way to the original one, which is then embellished by some effects. The second half of the album elaborates further on this, keeping the effects, and interchanging different tones and layers, and finally ending with the same sound as the album started with.

It's an elaborate drone, and the many layers prove that it's made by someone who knows how. Yet still, it's a bit too long for my tastes. The sound of this album is close to that on the follow-up, Pendulum, but All God's Children Got Space lacks the variation and more pronounced rhythms that made Pendulum so good. Because of that, this album tends to drift into the background more. Still, if you liked the other Psychic Space Invasion material, this is a nice album, and also if you're into very extensive and long drones.
