A Review of “ATLAN” by Thomas Jones A secret truth revealed: Beauty and the Beast are the same thing. Soriah’s chimera fusion with Ashkelon Sain has produced a sprawling entity, darkly cloaked in groaning atmospheres, yet emanating an ascending light of inestimable beauty. Atlan is a deeply organic experience. Crisp hand percussion palpitates rising drones in a cellular blood-rush of life. Long, open expanses of slowly shifting tones hang like low clouds in a frosted mountain range. And when the Quetzalcoatl Kundalini of Soriah’s lyrical throat singing fires down the spine, everything goes astral. Quivering strings and chimes offer allusions to Arabo-Andaleusian textures which run rivulet alongside Tuvan strains throughout the dreamscape. Dead CAN dance to such music, because this is the music of the underworld; the music of hidden places visited by beings beyond the corporeal. Both artists have long pedigrees; some 40 years of live and recorded musical experience between them. Soriah has existed under that name for over a decade, having released several albums and known for performing all places mystical, including trees, churches, caves. He has also been recognized, through international competition, as one of the top 5 throat singers in the world. Ashkelon Sain’s Trance To The Sun project is legendary. And his composition skills have been honed razor sharp with his more recent Submarine Fleet. The collaboration is a match made in Omeyocan (the highest Aztec Heaven). Each of Atlan’s 11 tracks is a unique, carefully carved sound-mosque. Like minded soul miners Terry Riley, Huun Huur Tu, SPK’(Zamia Lehmanni)and Robert Rich are good touchstones for what’s in store, but trying to aptly describe the sonic majesty of Atlan may require divine intervention.
