if your typing style is any indication, you're listening to the ass-
end of the genre.
seriously, though, point me to some brazilian stuff that sounds like
hawkwind - most of it just sounds, oh, BRAZILIAN. with bits of
american and UK psych-pop mixed in. dig up gal costa's self-titled
album (the one with "tuareg" and "cinema olympia" on it), gilberto
gil's "cerebro eletronico", or caetano veloso's _araca azul_ and tell
me they sound like hawkwind. oh, you'll fucking hate them, pal, but
they don't sound anything like hawkwind.
and since when did hurdy gurdy sound like budgie?
as for japanese stuff, go buy fushitsusha's first double CD. then,
when you decide you hate that, too, sell it to me 'cause i need it
and don't want to pay $38 for it. thanks.

While Hawkwind is certainly an influence on the Japanese noise scene, they are only one of many influences. Krautrock (in general) and Gong also seem to have had an effect, to say nothing of various purveyors of guitar pyrotechnics like Jimi Hendrix, Leigh Stephens, Randy Holden, High Tide, and Savage Resurrection. Brazilian psych sounds nothing like Japanese noise (or Japanese psych, for that matter), so the pretext of the whole thing escapes me. Los Mutantes sound like Syd Barrett at a limbo contest - but in a good way...

Funny, I've just been getting into noise and then discovered Os Mutantes via a completely unrelated source but they fit together really well for me.

Tom Ze's not so "psych" in the subgeneric sense, but pretty trippy. Not like Hawkwind(although that would be okay), and neither is Ghost's mostly excellent (past the first track) HYPNOTIC UNDERWORLD.Although there might be some Hawkwind somewhere that sounds like some Ghost somewhere (it seems possible).
