After a lengthy hiatus, my mass musical collective, Atlas, has finally rekindled some sonic documentations. Originally conceived for a singular one-off concept album, Atlas begun in the late summer of 2004 (i think), creating a five track improvised post-rock 'masterpiece'. Back then it consisted of only me (The Professor), Ben Aizenberg (Andromadus) and Kit Codling (Helix Zephyr Zee), with our second album, Elements, we expanded the troops to total of ten members and hope that number to grow.
A hazy and lethargic new years eve/new years day led to some muscial explorations and experimentations, armed with some laptops, mics, guitars, a thumb piano, a FM3 Buddah Machine and a whole bunch of effects we layed down about 3 hours of jamming all recorded on a Panasonic tape dictaphone (all previous Atlas recordings were captured on various tape decks and mixers). I am yet to cut, edit and compose the whole lot into a coherent and digestable EP, and eventually re-mix and master the entire back catalogue and make it all available for free download.
Here are some pics of our ramblings:
