ALBUM REVIEW: Doctors of Space – Fusing Your Synapses | CD only - Limited to 100 copies | Released April 2025

July 1, 2025

If the title doesn’t already suggest an experimental mind melt, Fusing Your Synapses offers a cosmic plunge into sonic dissolution—an unfiltered, 70-minute trip where time folds, boundaries blur, and the static of modern chaos becomes the canvas for a different kind of clarity. With its blend of older recordings and newer electronic compositions, the album lands less as a collection of tracks and more as a dark ambient dispatch from an alternate consciousness.

Much like its spiritual predecessor Adventures in the Deep Dark Seas of Sound, this album trades in long form collage. But this time, the vibe is darker, reflecting a world that feels increasingly unhinged. You don’t listen to Fusing Your Synapses so much as surrender to it. Think late-night transmissions from a future that’s already burnt out its neon.

From the opening “Intro” through to the understated descent of “Outro,” the record plays as one continuous narrative arc—disorienting yet oddly coherent. The title track, “Fusing Your Synapes” [sic], slowly melts into place with modular pulses and textured drones, before “Doomstar” dials up the urgency with swampy synths and subterranean bass oscillations.

There’s a strong improvisational feel throughout, but the detail in the layering suggests a guiding intelligence. “Down the Ferret Hole You Go” may nod to psychedelic whimsy, but what it delivers is pure dark zone exploration—alien winds, half-glimpsed melodies, fractured signals. The hilariously titled “No More Bombs (inly Bongs!)” drops a distorted groove that almost, almost flirts with danceable tension before drifting into the hazy paranoia of “Pinned Codes.”

Perhaps the most gleefully subversive moment arrives with “Chicken Shit Burger Boy”—a title that lurches like Zappa through a dystopian filter, while the soundscape blends sputtering bleeps with squelchy analog squawks. There’s humour here, but it’s buried deep beneath layers of disillusionment and sonic entropy.

Fusing Your Synapses is a commitment, an hour-plus of audio freefall that invites you to disconnect from your surroundings and dive headfirst into a meticulously messy, sometimes maddening, always compelling sound world. It’s the kind of record that feels like protest and meditation all at once—a limited-edition artifact that both soundtracks and critiques the dissonance of our times.
