This crazy drought/heatwave in Indiana has

Download it for free!


Thanks again to everyone who has been supporting me 
by checking out Atlantic Downs.

Take care,

Greetings from…ATLANTIC DOWNS


ATLANTIC DOWNS
by
SPIRIT SPINE


Out of the depths of the digital ocean, the mercurial sound of Spirit Spine has formed into a fourth album titled ATLANTIC DOWNS. Taking influence from electronic standbys (Aphex Twin, Boards of Canada, and New Order) to contemporary producers (Clams Casino, Flying Lotus, and Zomby), ATLANTIC DOWNS engulfs the listener in a shroud of liquid noise. Samples of Italian horror films, ghostly wails/whales, and late night nostalgia swim in the stereo field of ATLANTIC DOWNS. Dripping drones, twisted rhythms and submarine-level bass rumble through a sea of trembling synthesizers in the world of ATLANTIC DOWNS.

Assembled under the weight of the future unknown, ATLANTIC DOWNS captures the strange confusion of racing to exist in a dark and cloudy age where nothing is permanent and everything is drifting away.

Tracklist
1. Fugue State
2. Coast Is A Ghost
3. Murked
4. Hanalei Bay
5. Atlantic Downs
6. Steambath
7. Dawn Patrol
8. Riverflow
9. Sick Wasted Vibe
10. Delta
11. Sayonara

To be available as a Digital Download and with a Limited Edition Postcard

More Progress

Vocals have been recorded for all but 3 songs.
(It's finals week right now, so those will slowly get recorded.)


Then I'll need to mix the vocals with the music and make sure everything sounds good.


Then the album will be mastered.


Then I'll put the album out :D


So that's what going on with the new album right now.


Thanks for waiting.

Progress (LP4)

Working on the album...

Roughly ten songs chosen.

Songs being augmented.

Vocals need to be recorded.

Album art is completed.

Album title is selected.

It will be finished before April.

No specific release date yet.

I don't want to give away anything that might ruin your expectations of the album, but I will say that I don't think it sounds like any album I've made before. I considered releasing it under a different name. 

Thank you for being patient.
