💥THE ANARCHIST OIK (MIKEY T.)💥 I got into Gong in 1984 when I was a young anarchist punk. I left home at 18 to live with some long haired herb toking dudes in Cheshire and it was there I discoverd Gong at first via Floating Anarchy. Never looked back yuhs ☄️🌪️❄️🤗 Favorite track: City Of Self Fascination.

nikmate I was happy. In my universe the Radio Gnome trilogy existed and all was good. Then I heard there was a fourth trip to the Planet Gong and my brain literally lost its physical form and now floats freely around my cranium. Favorite track: Escape Control Delete.

frandango-72 I saw this tour with Zero the Pixie Dada, Mr Hillfish and the pot head pixies.
I am, You are...we are.... Favorite track: Wacky Baccy Banker.

Tryptamina it's a good album but radio gnome trilogy and love from the planet gong, esspecaly the latter is RLY good^^ got bouth, hope you guy's have another album or 2 in you, would love some nice bass lines in them to^^ very inspirational and original in it's own way^^

best regards: Tryptamina/Psy

genepoolireland Been waiting for this to be available on Bandcamp, An absolutely brilliant addition to the gong collection definitely holds its own with the previous radio gnome trilogy, Its gong all over with a new modern twist, Great to hear so many of the original members playing together, forgot how great this album was :)

about

Described as exhilarating, compelling and other worldly, “2032” represents the first time Steve Hillage recorded with original Gong founder, Daevid Allen, since 1974’s “You” album. “2032” is a new instalment that continues the Gong’s famous ‘Radio Gnome’ album trilogy which includes the milestone psychedelic progressive rock albums - “Flying Teapot” (1973), “Angel’s Egg” (1973), and “You” (1974).

The band line-up on the album includes Daevid Allen (guitar, lead vocal): Steve Hillage (lead guitar), Gilli Smyth (Space Whisper and poetry), Miquette Giraudy (synthesiser), Mike Howlett (bass), Chris Taylor (drums), and Theo Travis (sax and flute).

Special guest performances on some tracks include former Gong member Didier Malherbe (soprano sax, duduk, and flute) and Yuji Katsui (electric violin) of the Japanese progressive/psychedelic jam band Rovo.

Original Gong members Steve Hillage, Daevid Allen, Gilli Smyth and Miquette Giraudy, wrote the songs for “2032” when they were in Australia. The new album also grew out of the enthusiasm and fun the band experienced playing live together again.

Together with the rest of the band, Daevid and Steve have crafted a rich and fresh sounding powerhouse of an album that is a more than worthy successor to the legendary Radio Gnome trilogy that Gong released at their creative peak in the 70s.
2032 is the year that the Planet Gong makes full contact with the Planet Earth – and a major new chapter in the continually evolving Gong mythology,” says Daevid Allen.
