Sun Atlas EP

Mythical "lost" EP from LA based outernational psych and spiritual jazz collective, now on vinyl for the first time.

Right after their celebrated debut single, Sun Atlas recorded material for a potential full length - the 8 gems you find on this 10" EP. A dozen acetates were cut for DJs to test rough mixes in the wild, album concepts were made and then the pandemic changed plans. People relocated, the line-up evolved and the project was shelved in favour of new recordings that became their acclaimed debut album "Return To The Spirit".

Unpolished and intuitive, these unreleased "acetate mixes" contain a magical spark. These 8 tunes are full of twangy guitars, otherworldly organs, lo-fi synths, big horns and dope drums, a wild mix of breakin' funk, cinematic soul, outernational jazz, surf and garage. Sun Atlas would later refine their style - here is the chance to experience them as a rough diamond.
