The follow-up to Light In The Attic's game-changing I Am The Center box set is finally here. Three years in the making, The Microcosm: Visionary Music Of Continental Europe, 1970-1986 is the first major overview of key works from cosmically-taped in artists needing little introduction - Vangelis, Ash Ra Tempel, and Popol Vuh - and and unknown masterpieces by criminally overlooked heroes like Bernard Xolotl, Robert Julian Horky and Enno Velthuys. Whereas I Am The Center called for a reconsideration of an entire maligned genre, The Microcosm requests nothing more than an open mind to consider this ambient, new age, neuzeit, prog, krautrock, cosmic, holistic stuff, whatever one calls it as a pulsating movement unto itself, a mirror refracting the American new age scene in unexpected, electrifying ways, proving beyond a shadow of a doubt the universality of the timeless quest to express "the Ineffable" through music. Drawing from major label budgets and homemade cassette distributed circumstances alike, The Microcosm demonstrates a depth of peace profound to behold, and clearly expands the boundaries. Lovingly conceived and lavishly presented by producer Douglas McGowan (Yoga Records) and liner notes contributor Jason Patrick Woodbury (Pitchfork, Aquarium Drunkard), The Microcosm features stunning cover paintings by Étienne Trouvelot, and labels by Finnish savant Aleksanda Ionowa. ## Images ![The Microcosm Visionary Music of Continental Europe 1970-1986 / VA - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81+3N521b0L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Two Silver Discs of Ambient Music From the Inner Havens of Creativity! *by T***O on Reviewed in the United States on April 6, 2017* Another brilliant and well thought out electronic music compilation from the Light in the Attic label.If you own the earlier 2 disc compilation I Am Center(which is brilliant in its own right) this is like a companion set but all European musicians. A virtual compendium of pioneering sound sculptors some more well known Vangelis than others Ralph Lunsten. The liner notes are from recent re-connections with many of these 1970s artists and its a chock-full of real insight into their mindset during the making of the pioneering music on these discs.I cannot say enough good things about this compilation its worth its weight in gold IF you enjoy serene electronic music that doesnt involve head pounding beats. This is music for the inner cosmos....... ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Great period Electro/Ambient sampler! *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States on September 22, 2020* An excellent collection. A few of the usual suspects, e.g., Roedelius and Vangelis, but plenty of names and music I've never heard or even heard of before. A must for any fan of the genre! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars Magickal *by P***T on Reviewed in the United States on March 22, 2017* Beautiful sounds. Didn't come with the download code, but the folks at Light In the Attic were happy to provide one after emailing them. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/105550609-the-microcosm-visionary-music-of-continental-europe-1970-1986-va](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/105550609-the-microcosm-visionary-music-of-continental-europe-1970-1986-va) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
