This is an unusual record—one that defies category and in terms of production is quite beyond regular horizons. The musical legend is that MIJ (Jim Holmberg) was a musician who, after a serious accident that fractured his skull, then healed, but began a mind-altering journey. For instance at a time just before making Yodeling Astrologer (ESP-Disk, 1969) Jim Holmberg heard created sounds that he did not remember hearing and found he could do musical things that he could not understand. Among them was a very high-pitched yodeling as he sang and the echo of his own voice. Thus the music on this record features the music Holmberg heard complete with these echoes and also some sonic delays.
