Welcome to the Magical Kingdom Where all your dreams can come true You have access to infinite wisdom To the other side you’ll have to break through You can travel by astral projection To any planet out in space The guardians are here for your protection Don’t be afraid when they reface Welcome, welcome, welcome To the Magical Kingdom You shall see the dragons flying Golden castles build on air The mysterious gnomes are hiding Inside the forest is their lair All the colours of the rainbow Are flickering every where These mushrooms will make you glow Now go up this stair Welcome, welcome, welcome To the Magical Kingdom We can travel through dimensions Journey into the unknown These wonderful sensations All the things that I’ve been shown Can you hear the ancients calling Can you see your final goal? The spirals are revolving Magical kingdom makes you whole

We are all living on borrowed time There’s no way telling when the final bells will chime Our civilization is built on hollow land No-one knows how much longer it can stand The Mother Earth is way too expensive to save While the human kind keep digging their own grave There is a limit to the selfishness and greed On and on we make our sacred planet bleed On hollow land Why can’t we understand On hollow land The air is filled with all the pollution and fume Our guardians watch us falling straight into our doom The spirits of the earth for all of us now weep As we are being drowned in waves that are so deep All cities crumble and the strongest towers fall Until there’s nothing left when nature takes its tall All this has happened many times before But we will never learn we do it forevermore On hollow land Why can’t we understand On hollow land

It’s time now to get real to reach the childhoods end You can’t live in fairytales no more can you pretend Welcome to the real world you’ve lost your innocence Now open up your eyes and see You are now grown enough to fully understand Our world’s a cruel and hard place not a dreamland Welcome to the real world you’ve lost your innocence All that you hear you can’t believe Now the time has come for you to realize That all along you’ve been fed way too many lies Welcome to the real world you’ve lost your innocence So much to learn don’t you agree? You don’t have to obey do everything they say But you’ve got to learn the rules to thegames they play Welcome to the real world you’ve lost your innocence You can’t trust everything you see Lost Innocence Lost Innocence Lost Innocence Lost Innocence Lost Innocence Lost Innocence Lost Innocence

The legend says there is a place, the Hidden City, high up in the mountains Heaven on Earth, full of love and peace, a magical kingdom Many have tried to find this place But all of them have failed You need light inside your heart If you want to travel to Shambala, Shambala Shambala, Shambala The land of thousand names, land of happiness, and land of wonders Eternal life is given to all in this place where the gods dwell Many have tried to find this place But all of them have failed You need wisdom in your mind If you want to travel to Shambala If you open your hearth and purify your soul through deep meditation It might be possible to find this place in the middle of dimensions Many have tried to find this place But all of them have failed You need light inside your heart If you want to travel to Shambala

There was this man I used to see Of silent kind, sipping his tea His skin was white, he had his schemes His light blue eyes were full of dreams So who was he, The Pale-skinned Man We maybe never will fully understand Sometimes he spoke of distant galaxies Of worlds of wonder and deep mysteries And then one day, he disappeared Without a word, it felt so weird Maybe he went back to his home Where ever that was, we’ll never know So who was he, The Pale-skinned Man We maybe never will fully understand Sometimes he spoke of distant galaxies Of worlds of wonder and deep mysteries

about

I'd like to welcome you all to take part in this journey into the land of dreams and fairy tales, full of mystery and imagination. I want to thank all my co-pilots, especially Jay Tausig who has worked so hard to improve my songs with his skills.

Thanks also to Dirk and Alex at Tonzonen for making this release a dream come true on one of my favourite labels. You guys rule!

Astral Magic is a new psychedelic and spacey solo project started in 2020 by ex-Dark Sun bass/Moog player Santtu Laakso.

A lot of international collaborators are also involved. It is common to have a new release every month.

Dark Sun (and the Rising Telepaths) was a Finnish psychedelic space rock band formed in 1991. The band went on hiatus in 2007 but some releases have turned up afterwards.
