A Winged Victory for the Sullen - Atomos VII

Review by Joe Goggins

A superficially beautiful mood piece, with a creeping sense of disquiet that very slowly becomes more obvious with each listen.»

Erased Tapes are pleased to announce the release of A Winged Victory for the Sullen's 'ATOMOS VII' - The first installment leading up to the release of the second full length studio album 'ATOMOS', and score for choreographer Wayne McGregor's long form dance piece. McGregor was heavily influenced by the duo's 2011 self-titled debut, playing it repeatedly during practices with his core group of dancers. After noticing the group's reaction with the music, he contacted Adam and Dustin to see if they could write the score for his new oeuvre. The duo recorded more than sixty minutes of music over a four-month period during the summer of 2013 in Brussels, Berlin and Reykjavik with the help of their longtime collaborative sound engineer Francesco Donadello. This EP also sees the involvement of Ben Frost, who composed the music for McGregor's previous work 'Far'.
