    Magazine Sixty Music Review with Afterlife

    Greg Fenton reviews Afterlife – Timbuktu – Subatomic UK Timbuktu scrambles the impulsive aural intensity of the modern world twisting the signs into meaningful discourse by charging headfirst into the face of adversity.

    Afterlife – Timeframes – Subatomic UK

    The inescapable difference between the music produced by Afterlife and that of so many others in this field is simply depth of musical vision.

  • Afterlife – Being There/ Quiet Music EP’s – Subatomic UK

    “Music is a moral law. It gives a soul to the Universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, gaiety and life to everything. It is the essence of order, and leads to all that is good and just and beautiful.” This quote from Plato echoes across thousands of years…

  • Afterlife – Way Out West – Subatomic UK

So the first question is why have you decided to revisit that particular album in 2018? Earlier this year I created a post on social media asking fans what they…

  • AFTERLIFE – STRING THEORY – Subatomic UK

    So, String Theory. Is it about strings or theory? Or the combination of both? Perhaps the opening GIVE IT UP reveals part of the answer as its soaring combination of fiery Trumpets, rushing arpeggios plus timely drum-breaks alongside refreshingly cool chords all eventually crash and burn, while disintegrating into the rather beautiful Like This, igniting…
