Psi Corps is a side project of Alisa Coral from Space Mirrors. The purpose of this project is to exploit a "soundtrack to a book" concept. It can can be any style or genre, the main ambition is to transfer the feeling and images of the story into the music soundscapes.
Charles Van De Kree (Jet Jaguar) - guitar and Arkady Fedotov (Vespero) - bass joined Psi Corps on new record "The Siege of Amber".
Michael Blackman (Alien Dream, Space Mirrors) joined the project for the album "Tekeli-li".
RAIG press-release: "After three albums under the name SPACE MIRRORS, Alisa Coral launched a new musical project PSI CORPS. The debut album "Tekeli-li" was written, recorded and produced by Coral, dedicated to the memory of Edgar Allan Poe, and inspired by his novel “The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket”. Michael Blackman (of ALIEN DREAM), yet another co-founder of SPACE MIRRORS, played all guitars and co-wrote several tracks. The duo has taken more experimental approach with this album, combining hard edged space-rock of the earlier works with abstract elements of cinematic music. Vocals have been completely abandoned this time as well as notable guest appearances. Coral and Blackman have amazing talent of introducing memorable synthesizer harmonies and guitar hook lines into their music. Conceived as a soundtrack, "Tekeli-li" is more focused on the scenes and characters behind a structure. As a whole, it sounds misty, obscured and rarefied, though in excitingly familiar manner."
