Free Music Notes for Atlantis
Free Music Review: Music Or Noise?
Hit: 1 Stars
Depends on your taste of course. What is music to one may be noise to another. To me this is noise - an atonal, arhythmic sonic mess for the most part. Here and there you get glimpses of melody, but it limps alongside murky, inarticulate accompanient, and goes nowhere in the end. The whole sound is so murky and ill-defined that it's hard to tell who plays what, and what song they are on. This will probably appeal to fans of Cecil Taylor and Ornette Coleman.
Atlantis Poster
One of the key but underappreciated episodes in avant-garde jazz, Sun Ra's Atlantis sounds far out even today. Rather than a full-on assault on the senses, Atlantis is an exercise in build-up, with long, almost forlorn passages of Ra on electric keyboards setting a vast echo chamber for his Arkestra to spring forth within. Captured during one of the most adventurous periods for Sun Ra, *Atlantis* features the orchestral perfection of the best big bands of the century-and then proceeds towards mutirhythmic explosions of intensity, all of it couched in Sun Ra's mixture of interglactic mysticism and heaping doses of experiments in tone, tempo, and texture. --Andrew BartlettJazz Music CDs
