Born out of The Pillars of Creation, raised
in the ethers of Subspace Distortions,
matured by an Outer Space Hopper
Safari, expanded their vision with a
Twanswarp Audio Head Drive with a Burn Up taking them global...
Escape Velocity is an album marking
Zetan Spore as a continually inventive
and original live dance music act.
“Mark and I feel we've really found
ourselves with this album,” Ian Hasdell
commented, “and we're extremely chuffed
with it. The tracks are a mixture of
banging psytrance tunes like the title track"Escape Velocity" and "Balloonatic",
more tribally influenced tracks like"Fungamental" and "Dark Matter",
with the usual Spore mix of light and
dark - some of the light going to heart
bursting extremities such as "Psyphoria"
and the remix we've done of "Burn Up"
off the last album, and we've even done a
more down-tempo psychedelic dub track
called "Spiralize". We've always wanted to create the ideal music
to dance to, with pounding but bouncy beats and basslines, with
plenty to keep your head entertained with the lead lines, twisted
weirdness and soundscapes and plenty of energy, adrenaline and
emotion.
We reckon we've definitely achieved it with this album -
all in all, 75 minutes of what we feel is the best music we've written
and produced over the last 10 years.”

About Zetan Spore
Evolving from the free party and festival circuit of the mid ‘90s, twin brothers Ian and Mark Hasdell have tapped into something extraordinary. Jaded clubbers, surfers, sk8ers and adrenaline junkies want something more from their dance music…wanting a bigger bang for their buck. This is a world where dance music fans have their own minds, know what they like and know what they want. Zetan Spore captures the spirit of this zeitgeist to perfection.
These intergalactic space cowboys have used the freedom of being based in Cornwall to experiment, push the dance music envelope and build a well earned profile for themselves on the British underground scene. The act has won rare praise from the likes of The Guardian and featured spots at live events such as London’s Antiworld.
Zetan Spore has won admiration, respect and success on the UK underground scene through years of hard work and sticking faithfully to their vision. This success has seen the release of five well-received LPs: The Pillars of Creation (1998), Subspace Distortions (1999), Outer Space Hopper Safari (2000) and Transwarp Audio Head Drive (2002) and Burn Up (2004).
