Atom Eye release Trilogy 120 EP
“... a masterful display of evocative music and true experimentation...” - The Music Fix
After the release of Trilogy 120 - Part I and II, Elsie Martin’s Atom Eye completes her fascinating sonic voyage into the unknown with Trilogy 120 - Part III. The final part completes the EP - Trilogy 120 - and this intriguing journey.
Atom Eye’s Trilogy EP was released in three individual parts, each part will had its’ own artwork and sound, tying together the EP as a whole. The collaboration with Pete Lockett has been a perfect fit as Lockett worked extensively in the film industry, arranging and recording percussion for many Hollywood hits. Part III will sees a collaboration from Mute artist, composer and producer Simon Fisher Turner - whose works include soundtracks for Derek Jarman's Caravaggio, The Last of England and The Garden as well as the David Lynch-produced Nadja; perfect additions to Atom Eye’s oeuvre.
Atom Eye's Trilogy 120 EP is available to stream and download from the official Atom Eye website.
The Trilogy, as a whole, is an exploration of experiments with field recordings, analogue tape loops, reel-to-reel machines, guitars, cellos, ambient drone and world percussion. Drawing influences from film soundtracks, experimental music and sound art, Trilogy 120 was mixed and co-produced by James Aparicio (Liars, Spiritualized).
Elsie’s previous work in Phantom certainly made its mark on the alternative circuit. The Quietus, Artrocker and Q were amongst their fans with the band’s debut album, Smoke & Mirrors, receiving brilliant reviews. Pushing the envelope furthermore with Atom Eye, Elsie has been concentrating on developing her sound into something more filmic whilst retaining the sensual melodies and intriguing compositions that we have known her for.
With Elsie’s background and Atom Eye’s quirky collaborations and cinematic direction, this project is set to intrigue and beguile the avant-garde music scene in 2012.
Trilogy 120 out now and is available as a free download from the Atom Eye website.
