Ateleia - Formal Sleep

Formal Sleep by Ateleia

Ateleia is Brooklyn resident James Elliott. His music combines crystalline pulse with submerged aquatic drones and subtle ghost melodies. It's not so much oceanic as it is tide pool - the churn of the tidal impulse captured in miniature and crawling with activity. Evoking the grand echo of My Bloody Valentine and the long-standing tradition of psychedelic minimalism, but informed by contemporary electronic music, Formal Sleep is truly immersive. Featuring contributions by David Grubbs (Gastr del Sol), David Daniell (Rhys Chatham, Jonathan Kane), Jon Philpot (Presocratics, Bear In Heaven) and Sadek Bazaraa. Tracks : 1. Of Isthmus 8:06, 2. Salt Horse Sculpture 9:30, 3. Formal Barrier 5:57, 4. Brine, Coming To Rest 9:28, 5. A Doubtful Shore 5:49, 6. Bridget Riley 9:10
