Alien – Larry Heard – Audio CD – Pre Owned CDs (Arrives in 14days)

Larry Heard, a pivotal architect in the evolution of deep house, ventures into cosmic territory with ‘Alien.’ Released in 1996, the album stands as a mesmerizing testament to Heard’s ability to blend lush, atmospheric textures with intricate rhythmic frameworks. Unlike his more dancefloor-oriented projects, ‘Alien’ is a masterclass in subtlety and mood, weaving together shimmering synths, weightless basslines, and otherworldly melodies that invite listeners into a tranquil, introspective soundscape.

What makes ‘Alien’ so compelling is its refusal to conform to genre boundaries. Heard channels his jazz influences, creating moments of improvisational flair, while the album’s ambient passages evoke a sense of weightless exploration. There’s a palpable intimacy in each track, making it ideal for late-night listening or moments of quiet contemplation.

For collectors and audiophiles, ‘Alien’ represents a rare intersection of innovation and emotional resonance—a record that not only expanded the vocabulary of electronic music but also continues to influence producers decades later. Owning this album is a nod to the quieter, more experimental side of dance music’s history and a genuine showcase of Larry Heard’s artistry.
