• Cooper Crain jednou vykrystalizoval étos Bitchin Bajas pomocí jednoduché otázky: „Pokud najdete dobrou smyčku, která může mít vlastní hudební podobu, tak proč ji nepoužívat?” Tato filozofie dobře sloužila své skupině po celých sedm let a teď to stejně efektivně prokázal v nové spolupráci. Nic nového: předtím prostřednictvím spolupráce s Bonnie „Prince” Billym, Natural Information Society, Olivií Wyatt a Haley Fohr’s Jackie Lynn. Bitchin Bajas svůj sound rozšiřuje a podněcuje své partnery, aby udělali totéž. Uvědomte si, že trio je schopno najít dobré smyčky a vědět, jak je používat. Cooper Crain is also guitarist/organist of the band Cave. The other members are Dan Quinlivan and Rob Frye.
• Second volume of “The Encyclopedia of Civilizations”, a collection of split LP’s where selected artists offer their own insight into fascinating ancient cultures.
• In this volume the music is inspired by Atlantis, a legendary civilization surrounded by mystery. The LP is presented in a special limited edition (500 copies) with an extensive booklet that tries to shed some light on the myth of Atlantis and will help you to immerse yourself in this fascinating civilization while you listen to the music. The sleeve is printed in the old way, letterpressed with metal movable type as Gutenberg used to do it, as all of the Abstrakce editions.
• DSR lines is the project of Belgian electronic artist David Edren. He’s been releasing his music for almost two decades on labels such as Ultra Eczema, JJ Funhouse or Black Sweat. His Atlantis tracks are one of his best works (if not the best) so far, developing an exquisite use of modular synths. David presents a mature work, the result of an intense experimentation with synths such as Buchla 200 or Serge Synthesizer Systems.
• His arpeggios and oscillations sound like music that would be played in an Atlantean temple worshiping an ancient god (probably Poseidon or Minos) if this wise civilization had reached our days. Organic minimal electronics developing a very personal sound, a spiritual approach that could be a modern continuation of the investigations started by JD Emmanuel, Ariel Kalma or Michael Hoenig.
• Bitchin bajas is the project by Cooper Crain (also from the band Cave), Dan Quinlivan and Rob Frye. They have released material on labels such as Permanent records, Drag City, Hands in the Dark and Important records. They present an astonishing 20~minute~track inspired by the diaspora of the Atlantean people after the great cataclysm that sank their island at the bottom of the ocean and plunged its splendor into darkness forever. Warm, instrumental, psychedelic and melodic music that drinks from the electronic minimalism of the 60s and 70s (Terry Riley, La Monte Young..) blended with the spatial feeling of the kosmische maestros (Klaus Schulze,Harald Grosskopf, etc.). Deep electronics, hypnotic pulses and enigmatic melodies introducing acoustic instruments such as flutes or xylophones that will make you float in space while thinking about our Atlantean ancestors.
