Spirits Align by The Man from Atlantis
Shifting unnoticed beneath our feet, our subconscious functions like a customizable LED light, casting everything we experience in a hue that we eventually stop noticing altogether. The Man from Atlantis calls our attention to this slowly sliding ground on Spirits Align, an experimental drone album that pulls heavy influence from Indian folk music to deliver a psychedelic sound. Complex webs of stringed instruments and acoustic percussion elevate us to chaotic emotional highs, climbing a gradual ascent that mimics the subtlety of our innermost mind. Just as each new thought joins in the chorus of voices that temper our wellbeing and emotions, every layer added to the music on Spirits Align doubly takes on the hue of and contributes to the texture of the existing shifty stew beneath. In this examination of our most hidden mechanisms, we learn to keep a careful eye on this tide as it ebbs and flows, allowing us to reach the ultimate level of self-awareness that unlocks our path to inner tranquility.
