'The Acid Lands', created by the Prague-based Opening Performance Orchestra, was first performed in 2014 at the Movement-Sound-Space festival in Ostrava, to mark the centenary of William S. Burroughs's birth. The piece was performed live with guests, the theremin player Martina Potuckova, and the poet, musician and performer Pavel Z as the narrator. The studio version of 'The Acid Lands' was recorded in collaboration with Bill Laswell and Iggy Pop, who undertook the role of the narrator. The piece, which pays tribute to William S. Burroughs, features fragments from the novels 'The Western Lands' and 'Junkie'. In addition to the title composition, 'The Acid Lands', the record contains Bill Laswell's instrumental remix, as well as the collective piece 'Naming Seven Souls', featuring samples of William S. Burroughs reading his own work.
