More Info:
Voyage 34, an instrumental composition from 1992/93, is a journey split into 4 phases that rocks for over an hour, this was Porcupine Tree's entry into the ambient trance genre popularized by artists such as the Orb. Combining trance rhythms alongside more typical TP textures and guitar solos, Voyage 34 was a big hit in the ambient/chill out club scene of the early 1990's (when it was originally issued across two 12-inch singles). Following the now sold-out first box set of Porcupine Tree's Delerium Years, and the near sold-out second box set, Kscope are re-releasing the band's records from the era, including Voyage 34, as a series of LP's presented in gatefold packaging. This double LP version is pressed on to 180g heavyweight audiophile vinyl, and features the tracks remastered by Steven Wilson in 2016 with more naturalistic dynamics and EQ - remasters previously only available in The Delerium Years 1991-1993 box set. The artwork was completely redesigned for the original re-release and contains new images from long-term collaborator of Porcupine Tree frontman and founding member Steven Wilson, Lasse Hoile.
