Winter Vacation by Atlas Sound

Künstlerbiographie Atlas Sound

Atlas Sound Is The Solo Moniker Of Deerhunter Frontman/provocateur Bradford Cox So Named Since 1994 When A Sixth-Grade Bradford Made Recordings On A Karaoke Cassette Machine Bearing The Words ‘Atlas Sound’. Though It Was Cox’s Earliest Musical Incarnation It Wasn’t Until 2008 That The First Atlas Sound Album Emerged Let The Blind Lead Those Who See But Cannot Feel. The Genesis Of The Record Can Be Traced Back To Those Sixth-Grade Musical Experiments A Time When He Discovered Through Reading A Beck Interview That His Family’s Disused Karaoke Machine Could Be Used As A Rudimentary Multi-Tracking Device. As Cox’s Tirelessly Updated Blog Attests With Its Caverns Of Freely Available Covers Demos And Mixtapes Such Recording Processes Are Central To His Music Colouring The Intimate Feel Of Atlas Sound In A Manner More Apparent Than When Writing Under The Guise Of Deerhunter. If Its Predecessor Was A Record Of Fragile Beauty And Acute Experimentalism That Spoke Of Its Bedroom Genesis The Second Atlas Sound Album Logos Arrived In 2009 With A Far More Rooted Pop Sensibility. Featuring Collaborations With Animal Collective’s Noah Lennox And Laetitia Sadler Of Stereolab The Album Expanded On The Often-Insular Tendencies Of The First Atlas Sound Record This Time Outward Gazing And Almost Sunshine Loving In Its Ebullience. Moving Away From Piercing Introspection And Towards A Grand Pop Plateau Cox Managed To Translate His Music Into A More Universally Engaging Form While Retaining The Intimate Charms Of The Project. Citing The “ideas That I Can't Make Work With A Five Piece Rock Band” As The Basis Of His Solo Material Cox’s Work As Atlas Sound Represents A Feral And Prolific Musical Voice. With Its Scorched Beauty Stream Of Consciousness And Wonderfully Cohesive Pop Narrative Atlas Sound Is Another Outlet For Cox’s Relentless Creativity Distinctly Remaining The Product Of Just One Man’s Vision.

Frogtoon Musik - Song-Info: Winter Vacation

"Winter Vacation" Is A Song About A Trip That My Family Took To Savannah Geo. The Week I Met Lockett. The Day I Met Lockett I Saw Him In A Busport And He Looked So Lonely. I Was Like Who Is This Lonely Boy? I Was Attracted To Him But Not In Some Kind Of Like Just Physical Way. I Was Attracted To His Melancholy His Sitting Alone Staring At The Ground. Like What Was The Kid Thinking? I Immediately Fell In Love Right Then At First Sight. I Remember Driving To Savannah With My Family My Parents Arguing The Entire Way Because My Parents Fought All The Time Before They Divorced. I Had A Real Kind Of Intense Upbringing With My Family. And We Didn't Have Any Money We Were Very Like Lower-Class And There Was Just A Lot Of Tension. There Was Alcoholism And Stuff. It Was A Time In My Life Where There Was A Lot Of Pain And Suffering That A Lot Of People Go Through-- I Don't Feel Alone Or Pity Myself. But I Just Remember Sitting In The Backseat In Heaven Feeling Like I Was On Ecstasy Listening To Headphones. I Believe I Was Listening To The Orb's Adventures Beyond The Ultraworld "Back Side Of The Moon". My Parents Are Fighting In The Front Seat And We Arrive At The Beach In Savannah And It's The Dead Of Winter. And Just The Beach Is Just The Most Desolate Place And I Remember It Was Raining. A Lot Of The Lyrics Are Like "I Saw The Rain Crash Into The Windshield." It's Just The Details. And The Details Somehow Were Infected With That New Love I Had And Seemed Blown Out Of Their Normal Kind Of Tame Or Subtle Context. Everything Seemed Like An Explosion. It All Seemed New It All Seemed Real Bright And I Was So Excited. I Was So Excited. Lockett Had Just Given Me His Phone Number For The Very First Time. And I Was Driving With All These Expectations Of Like "I Want To Make This Boy My Friend. I Want To Possibly Make This Boy My Boyfriend." I Was In Love For The First Time In My Life Ever And It Made This Desolate Beach Scene Seem So... Cozy You Know? It Was Just A Warmth Coming From Within For Me. -Bradford Cox
