Gel-Sol’s Adventures Beyond the Plunderworld is a sample-based collage made with over 7 years of collected samples.
While Gel-Sol is best known for his ambient work, especially his e:mt release 1104, Adventures Beyond the Plunderworld is pure plunderphonics. Profane, prurient & puerile, Adventures Beyond the Plunderworld is a full-on NSFW & blow-coffee-out-your-nose funny collage of spoken samples from b-movies, obscure TV shows, educational films, adult films and NPR.
You can listen to Gel-Sol’s Adventures Beyond the Plunderworld below or via his site, where you’ll also find his ambient music and examples of work from other projects.

The cover art and title is also a parody/ reference to The Orb’s “Adventures Beyond The underworld.”

this was really awesome, it must have taken a lot of work to put this together
His music is worth checking as well. I’m lucky enough to own his first two albums on CD, very “Orb” but with a style of their own. Because let’s face it, no-one else can be Kris Weston. Gel-Sol has made some nice music though.
Most of my material, old and new, is available via bandcamp.
